Liked the game! Art was good, and the matching was smooth as well as showing which characters would be killed. I wish there was music/sound and that cascading events didn't push me so far in the negative!

Thanks! Yes, we will need to rethink the main groups match and scoring so it doesn't punish that hard and randomly.

That was a really interesting take on match 3 gameplay. Having to avoid matching a certain type is an interesting idea but losing points felt very harsh, especially when matches would happpen with new blocks appearing. Having a visual representation of which character to avoid would have been helpful as it wasted a few turns initially working out who to avoid :) But I liked the artstyle for the game and it was a good use of the style :) Nice work!
