Graphics/Audio/and Gameplay are all solid. Only small changes I would make is adding a tutorial or instruction screen of some sorts, cuz it feels like you are just thrown into the game, and a visual effect for shooting (although you probably just haven't included these due to time).
Neat idea shooter and tetris! It's pretty tough, but fun :)
Great idea! I always wanted to shoot those nasty blocks. :D
Nice idea, solid realisation. The thing is it is pretty hardcore from the start (too much different colors) and doesn't explain itself really well. The other aspects are pretty good, I like physics of blocks at game over screen
Interesting take on a Tetris/block puzzle game. I liked the graphics and the sound especially. Great job!
This was actually a lot of fun! A very interesting twist to tetris, but I miss the ability to rotate blocks. If you could rotate blocks it would encourage the player to use all the blocks available. Still the gameplay was unique and made for interesting mechanics.
The graphics and music was very nice, it created a cool atmosphere. Because of the clear visuals the game was quite easy to understand after a while, though as others have said, it was somewhat overwhelming to be put into the game without some instructions or guidelines.
Overall, cool and fun game. Great job! :smiley:
OMG i love this game so much <3 but i think you could make movement just a little bit smoother and the idea is really cool
Very good indeed but as was brought up, rotate ability would have been very helpful, its too hard right now. And There really should have been a grid, with say a color gradient under the blocks to see where they would fall. I would say its starts a bit fast too, especially without drop position sign. and the blocks moving up make it overkill. That is a good feature, but I feel it should come after no shooting for too long; work as an incentive to shoot. What can I say, great idea, full of potential a bit held back by its difficulty, but great nonetheless.
Good graphics, mucsic, concept: Great job!
Audio fits the game really well. As mentioned by others, the ability to rotate the blocks somehow would have been cool. Overall nice short burst of fun!
Good take on the theme. It was really hard.
As other has said it would be nice to be able to rotate blocks because now I had problems creating rows.
Otherwise a fun game to play with some good music
It's a really neat idea and a good execution. Maybe it could be a bit more 'forgiving' when you don't exactly click on a block. But I guess that gives trouble when two blocks are close together. I enjoyed the music, it fits the mood well. I also liked the death animation.
A challenging game! It took me a couple of tries to understand how the game worked. Once I started playing the blocks would cover up the instructions along the bottom. An interesting take on tetris and mixing it up into a new style of play. Audio didn't play on my machine. Nicely scoped and polished game.
The concept works pretty well. Like the others, i would like to rotate blocks (with right click for example). Love the aesthetic. Good job!
Solid game, I wish the bottom area was taller.
This is a genius concept with a solid execution. The sound design is great and the placing of the pieces is super satisfying.
Just a few critiques here:
- I'd love to be able to right click on a piece to rotate it, and left click on it to shoot it. - This might make it too easy, but I think it might be neat to see a beam of light that shoots straight down to the bottom of the level when you hover over a piece so that you get a better idea of how it lines up. - Along the same lines, it would be cool if the piece you are currently hovering over turned white or had some indicator that you were on it. - Would be nice to have all the text on the bottom fade away after the game starts. It was a little distracting. - I think the piece coming in from both sides is totally fine, and an awesome mechanic, but I think they should each have their own dedicated row so that they don't overlap.
This submission is so cool. I'm jealous of your idea of this hybrid style. Well done!
I like the concept of this game ! The musics, graphics and animations avec well done ! Too bad the game isn't on full screen, and it's a little difficult i think
Nice little game. Cant see much wrong with it. The text at the bottom in the HTML version can be a little distracting + I understood what to do once i clicked on a block. Its a game that doesn't need much explaantion to play - thats great. Well done!!
Fun idea. but a bit frustrating.
If you don't have any abilty to move/rotate blocks as they fall, filling gaps under blocks becomes impossible. It is very hard to recover from a mistake.
Nice idea! Game matches theme. Audio and visuals are nice too. Could use some sensitivity settings though. :D
I'm a huge fan of tetris and that was not tetris... but it was... but it MOST CERTAINLY was NOT! WELL DONE! Keep up the A+ work xD
The music is awesome. Super hard, but a really cool idea. Liked the glow around the colors too, it had a cool aesthetic.
This is a really funny idea, a Tetris shooter?! :-)
Nice game, I like the constraints it puts on your mechanics, for example you have to shoot things really early to get them right at the edges.
I like the music, it really fits the game play.
Great job, keep up the good work! :-)
