Sadly doesn't start on windows 8.1 (mouse cursor loads for a second and it pops up in the task manager, but it's gone again right after).

Doesn't launch, no errors though

Try to run the xnafx40_redist.msi file if it doesn't launch :)

An addictive and fun new take on the teris-esque arcade style.
Needs a little graphical juice and some music, but you've already got the most important part of the game down.

Clicking left-right repeatitedly all the time is a bit straining for the fingers.
It fi's the 2 buttons game theme well.

Hi , i liked this game felt bad killing the people but then become fun muahaha :)

the graphics are nice and i get that you level up so you took that as growing along with two button control :)

shame you couldn't put a audio on/off as the music did get repetitive and i had to turn my own sound off and when in full mode on mac i could exit the app but overall i liked the game

Well Done!

darkgrisen 2015-12-14 13:07

Yeah, I should make some options to turn on/off sounds but I was running out of time :P

Not bad entry, i played this more than 10 minute. XD

Good job!

guigrillo13 2015-12-14 13:20

So much fun!! Good job :)

1630 points ! is that bad ? :p

Pretty interesting concept, at first I thought it was too easy annnd was proven wrong, it's quite intense. Good game!

It was crazy to play it on touchpad pressing left and right buttons to explode the bombs. Fun game for 5-10 minutes.

Great game! I got 3080! Will rate after I submit our Jam entry :)

tutti-ankka 2015-12-14 15:24

Good idea and fun game!

jackyjjc 2015-12-14 21:05

A solid physics based game, quite a bit of fun, like it. The difficulty ramps up pretty fast though I think. It would be nice if it is balanced better :)

Cool Tetris-like game. Having a hard time understanding what the requirements are for using items. Sometimes I'll have enough money or points for any item and won't be able to use them. Is there a cooldown I can't see?

diebackstudios 2015-12-15 14:45

Next level Tetris xD Good Game.

drzanuff 2015-12-16 12:12

My Score 2540. Cool game. You should work on the graphics now. For a post-compo you could change the controls too, instead of left and right click, work just with the left click.

big-cow 2015-12-16 20:00

Oh yeah top score 2710! Thought this was really clever concept and strangely satisfying. Simple audio and video but really fun! Well done.

threelivesgames 2015-12-17 17:10

An interesting idea! I think you would have benefited from using two keyboard buttons to like... pump the bombs.

Crashes on startup

joror 2015-12-20 15:35

That start menu background was a little too busy on the eyes. :D

Fun game, but could easily get very far with just dropping spikes. Then it accelerated a bit and I had to use bombs, but it quickly was too fast at that point.

Some more diversity would be cool, but a nice start. (score: 1890)

piscythe 2015-12-20 16:33

This is a really cool idea. I liked the tools available, and it was fun at the end scrambling to defend. The difficulty curve was off, though. The game started slow and stayed that way for a while, then quickly became extremely difficult. Also, the interface buttons need work - letting go of them outside of the playing field leaves them stuck there.

Score: Attempt 1 / 2270 Points

hotboxgames 2015-12-20 19:07

Nice! Tetris with a twist! :D I think the sound could use a bit of work but other than that was quite fun to play through! :) Gooood job!

tantumgames 2015-12-22 16:11

Nice game, you remain in the game for a while a good job.

zenmumbler 2015-12-23 15:49

When I launch it on my Win7 VM in VMWare it complains that the graphics card can't handle the XNA HiDef profile needed for the game, which looking at the screenshots made me chuckle. Probably a bit much too ask, but if you can make a build requiring a low-profile gfx card, I can test it. Thanks for your feedback as well!
