I’m on it. I tried using Unicode in the GUI, but it didn’t work—now it’s fixed. I’ll run some tests; it probably makes more sense if a piece self-explodes when triggered by another piece of the same colour. The next piece is broken, and I’m addressing that as well. Thanks for all the helpful feedback! I sometimes get operationally blind and miss bugs. The white circles are simply indicators of the blast radius.
Great! Just played it again. I liked the new additions, which makes it more challenging. Is there a fixed mutation sequence? It seems that the blocks can only mutate a limited number of times before stopping.
Previously I noticed that the following block got stuck on the top right hand edge when rotating, but thought it was me pressing the wrong buttons. It was originally upright before I pressed rotate:
Also, maybe you might want to reconsider the rotated positions of the T-shaped piece.
During the gameplay just now, an orange I-shaped piece which showed up on "Next Piece" once changed to a blue or green L-shaped piece when it comes out from the top. I'm quite sure I didn't press the mutate key, and I'm not sure why, maybe something triggered the mutation sequence?
Mutations are restricted; I pulled the purchase UI since it slowed gameplay. I’ve moved it to the left so players can select it, but I’ll need to test that first.

I’ll refine the rotation tonight and run more tests in the morning—your feedback has really boosted my motivation!
