My Chrome malware did not like the file i downloaded :( but this still looks interesting. I really hope you create a web-build for this game!
Edit: I downloaded the game, and tried it. I come up with the error (the reason of the malware interests might be of the scoreboard you do have implemented on this)
@hiisileiri Sorry to hear that ! My chrome also gave me a warning when I downloaded it but it only tells me that my program is not often downloaded therefore potentially dangerous (^^"). I can't promise web-build but I'll see if I can use the free game maker license available for the jam :)
I grabbed my score! --- score.PNG
I am not certain of all the rules. Do the colors matter? Sometimes the blocks seem to break when I run blocks into them (not when a line is completed) is that because they are fragile? Am I getting points for that?
Cheers!

@hiisileiri That is normal for downloading Jam games. Antivirus throws a false positive on "unique files".
Be wary of files you download obviously, but also be certain that Antivirus is going to complain whenever you run a downloaded game jam game.
@the-lame-brain Thank you for playing (^o^). When you complete a line, the game add the value of each block or add a multiplier to the score line (^^). At the start of the game, a red cube is a x2, a green cube is 30 points and a yellow 40 points. So if you have 3 reds, 4 greens and 2 yellows the line give you : (1+(3x2)) * (4 x 30 + 2x 40) = 7x200 = 1400 points (^^). At least if I didn't made any mistake in the code (^^') And yup, block are fragile. If you break them with collision, you gain 5 points (but the points for breaking is arbitraty and not based on the color)
I come up with error while pressing "cancel" to add score: ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ ERROR in action number 1 of Async Event: Dialog for object ScoreSheet:
Variable ScoreSheet.inscribe_name(100184, -2147483648) not set before reading it. at gml_Object_ScoreSheet_Other_63 ############################################################################################ gml_Object_ScoreSheet_Other_63 (line -1)
Pretty cool game, Its got some unique mechanics with the fact that you can forcefully break blocks that definitely plays into the unstable theme. I enjoyed it
@hiisileiri Thank you for the bug report (^^'). I forgot to add a default value for the name.
@kitsisuriyotsuru Thank you for your kind comment (^w^). You can also interact with some elements of the ui (^^) (like clicking directly on the blocks or clicking three times on the middle rotating bar (^w^))
I really liked the music to go with stacking the blocks. Very relaxing. Here is my score!

@aaronfournet Thank you for playing (^w^). I'm glad you liked the music.
Very pretty game! I'm so fun when play it!
@terabyte Thank you (^w^)
Haha cute "Please don't click too much"... Sorry about the sign..! Neat idea :)
it feels too easy, because you can just drag the blocks to the side to destroy other blocks. I did have a fun time trying to figure out the mechanics
@xhadie Thank you for playing (^w^)
@substain Thank you for the feedback (^w^). I guess it is really easy. Difficulty was something I was not sure about and given the time left I opted for easy over hard (^^").
I really like the new layout and the sound when I clicking the cat on the bottom right, haha. Good job!
@dinwy Thank you (^w^) !
Thanks for your game. This is truly a masterpiece. A very interesting gaming experience.
It was fun to play. Nice mechanics! Didn't manage to get score above 10 000 :( But still pretty simple and cool.
@kit-gorn @dak001 (^w^) Thank you for playing ! :)
I guess you could call it Tritries? heh
@lex I guess (^^). But it's hard to say out loud :p.
Simple but effective, well executed! Keep it up!
@arttu-halonen Thank you (^w^)
Simple and neat. I like the way it looks.
Nice entry ! Simple but efficient ! And everything with an homemade engine right ? Pretty cool :D
@kraghan Thank you (^w^). However, it's not homemade engine, I used Game Maker Studio 2 (^^)
@fabianfucci Thank you ! (^w^) I still think I went a bit too simple, but I'm a bit too slow to code more in only 72h (^^)
@yohsk13 Oh right ! My bad, it still a good game :D
This is really well made! Feels very stable, has a nice twist on a classic game, and has simple and cute graphics. Really well done!
@ericbomb Thank you for playing (^w^)
dont know why but tetris gives me such nostalgia. I enjoyed the game, good job :3
@denilseven Thanks (^^)
It seems unintentional that you can clear any type of block just by shoving and rotating blocks into each other. I was able to keep a clear board just be constantly shoving the next piece into what I just placed.
I thought the music and graphics were very charming. I liked the "surprises" from clicking too :)
@macaroni-dev Thank you (^w^)
@ninjacreeper47 Hum.... Well, difficulty was clearly not what I was going for to be honest (^^). And while you can keep the board clean that way, each clashing block give you only 5 points, which is nothing compared to what you get from competing a line (^w^). But I was considering things like some unbreakable blocks or changing the speed of the game with time... Thank you for your feedback (^^).
