great visual style, though the theme is unpleasant lol. It has those crunchy pixel graphics so that's good. It needs some balancing imo. shooting to push the pieces, the fire rate is uncomfortably slow, it just feels quite difficult. much more difficult than actual tetris, since you can't turn the pieces, and you can have garbage that never goes away. So it could be easier.. And, another direction of change would be to like, have the garbage only show up as the game progresses to become more difficult. I also think that rather than having a tetris-like line clear, it would be cool if groups of the same color would disappear. You would have to change around the pieces some, but, for reference of what concept I am thinking of, watch a Dr. Mario video. Matching colors, which then might release parts which might match colors again, would lead to combos.

Thanks for the advice! This game does leave a lot to be desired. Also I really like Dr. Mario.

Great concept, tho I'd make it faster!! A higher fire ratio would help a bunch. This is geat work and amazing art btw! loved it!

Developer

Thanks for the suggestion!

I plan to make the fire rate higher so it's easier to clear rows (because that part is more satisfying than just shooting away garbage). 

I also want to add one more item to reduce falling blocks speed, and make it that player can destroy existing blocks by touching it and taking one damage. 

Upload is locked for the jam right now, so I'm just resting lol. But I plan to add more next week!

This is an interesting take on a tetris-style game! I was having some trouble with the controls and the game locked up for a second or two when new blocks spawned at the top, but other than that this is a really polished game and the art is great!

Developer

Thanks for the playing!

Yes, that freeze is caused by the particle effect on the trash spawning for the first time (we added those particles last minute so had no time to optimize). 

Upload is locked for the jam right now, so I'm just resting lol. But I plan to optimize, add more features, and adjust balance next week!

Interesting concept but using the mouse feels a little off when moving around with the keys, like the controls might be more suited to keyboard only. I couldn't successfully defend very much but the idea is pretty creative.
