Great concept! Love the marriage of these two genres, the card drag is also a nice touch, makes it feel more authentic. Ran into some bugs where pieces wouldn't fall all the way down and get stuck instead. Also, maybe the piece could fall faster and the card countdown be a little faster as well to speed up play.

Challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 41 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQphYmNNYE4

Neat concept! Would be cool if you could double click a card to activate, and maybe unavailable moves would just attempt it anyways and deal with collisions? Though I think you were going for a system where if you don't have the card you need you can bail out and discard to look for it. Pretty cool game and audio!

Nice concept - the rotate card needed to come up a bit more. other than that really fun to play. Reminded me of the software Scratch but for Tetris. Great entry

Good job! Cool game!

I rate your game, if I can give a game in my game, Witch's Escape.

The concept is awesome but it is soooo hard! I was constantly panicking and I did the wrong choices EVERYTIME!

But really fun and well done!

Really solid entry! Agree with @petitpois that I had a real hard time getting things to happen because I'd end up with a lot of Left 4 when I really needed any sort of rotate. I don't think the discard mechanic helped me as much as I'd have liked in those situations. Nice take on the theme!

Very tough but great concept!

Great game, really hard to play due to lack of rotate cards. Need like 50 of these at all times for me playing tetris. Sweet concept. Really cool.

This really forces you to think a lot differently than the two genres separately. It's like, every time I dragged a card, I thought, where is my dpad and A/B buttons!?! For me, the fun didn't outlive the novelty. I got too stressed out playing it. Lol. Anyway, good job!

Nice use of the theme. Just clearing one line felt like a huge accomplishment. On my last game I scored three lines (a single and double). At times I felt like I could have used more rotation cards. I really liked the music, and how it speeds up when the stack gets higher, just like in the old GameBoy Tetris.

The blending of these two genres works surprisingly well! It's was pretty fun, although it was very difficult for me. Couldn't get many rows completed!

A fun combination of genres, but it was very hard and stressful. Could definitely become something really good with some polish.

Tutorial screen allows you to click to continue, but will automatically continue if you don't click. Very frustrating

This is an interesting premise. I like how the player has to work within the limitations of the cards they are given. That said, I feel that to rotation cards are a bit too rare, making it difficult to play the game effectively. The audio also got very repetitive quickly. Overall, this game could use some polishing, but it shows some potential. Nice work!

Interesting and difficult!

There's a tiny problem though: thanks to the 3 second freeze bonus when you discard a card, you can keep cycling through your deck with the piece frozen in place until you find the card you want :)
