Really nice! It's a fun and compelling mechanic!

I really like the design and color scheme! It's like a rubiks cube cross with tetras. The music is good too :)

I got a score of 4620. Pretty relaxing game, I think it takes a while to ramp up, but definitely gets harder as more blocks come up. I died because I wasn't paying attention as much to all the columns. I was trying to create more cascading combos - I think that's the only way you can work against the number of blocks filling the screen. Nice job!

Very surprising : in fact, when I see the description, I was thinking "Again a candy-crush-tetris like puzzle-game ...", but after a few seconds, I found your game very cool and fun :wink:

Great job !

Nice game :)

@aeveis Yeah, a planned feature that didn't come through was some sort of block animation indicating a column is in danger of touching the top of the screen. Unfortunately, I ran out of time.

Edit: and did I mention the difficulty levels were a last minute addition? I didn't have time to balance it :tired_face:

Very addicting puzzle game! Surprisingly polished too for a LD jam game! I really enjoyed it, well done!

I like the game mecanics here ! It is so satisfying to see the blocks eliminating themselves. I was terrible though and hardly reached 1000. Maybe the grid is too big, when I was stuck, I couldn't see the end of it. Great job !

I liked how relaxing the placement rules compared to puyo puyo/tetris-style mechanics adds a different vibe to the game while still preserving the urgency to clear the board. Nice touch!

Aesthetics were quite smooth and polished, even if the music could become a bit repetitive at times.

These games can get you into the zone easily, and yours was no exception. Great work!
