A bit complicated but a clever combination of two different games!

This game is incredible!  My only complaint is that I wish there was a mode that started slower so I could grasp the various strategies a bit more before dying.  Please please make this into a full game.

Developer

thank you so much!! 

i do definitely think it would be nice to add a "puzzle mode" (like panel de pon), and probably more practice features & difficulty options. not totally sure if there'll be a "full" version, but i do want to do at least one update (mainly to rework the scoring), and may well end up working it in2 something like that. well see!!

It took me a while to grasp the rules, but it was a very unique combination.
The artwork and sound, reminiscent of classic games like Puyo Puyo, were also very impressive.
The difference from traditional Minesweeper is that you have to detonate each block one by one, making it a bit tricky to gauge the mines' locations.
Especially, I kept forgetting that rotating a block also rotates the surrounding mines

thank you for playing and thanks for the kind comment!!

god this game looks soooooo good. the extremely old school palette is used to great effect here, and i love the gameplay. The controls feel tight and i enjoyed the time i spent on it. the music also rules, thank you for making this!!


i do wish that i could place flags just like in minesweeper, so that way after i deduce the location of a mine, i can focus on finding another one and using them together to clear lines; if my other clue blocks are pretty far away, i have to spend a lot of effort remembering the location of the previous mine block

thank u so much for the kind words & i'm very glad u enjoyed it!!!!

& thanks for the input; i think if i worked on this more i'd def want 2 add flags as a practice option or alternative mode.  but personally i think omitting flags in the main game adds a lot of strategy & risk 2 how you manipulate & organize the board (edit: and tests your "analog memory", heh), in a game that would otherwise mostly just be an exercise in raw speed
