Big thanks to TCA for hosting it.


It's fairly easy to play, just remember to read the readme.

Pretty good. Nice and smooth. 2 players at once on same keyboard is a nice touch.

Only had time to play a few games (I should be working!). Highest score is only 21746 getting to level 16.

Only one bug so far. Player one's menu controls are too fast going up and down so it is impossible to select middle option!

Boo!

Yeah, that's a keystate bug, I completely forgot to find a work around, it's a real pain when you want a 2 player game!.

21746 is more than I can score, my mom actually beat me yesterday .

Great game! Just got 23847--- made it up to the "monkey-robot" level. I love how the pieces change every so often-- you must have made dozens of sets!

Love it
Very well produced - graphics are lovely.

Would it be possible to pop it in windowed mode and processor friendly - dare I say sync off - i have an incredible overheating laptop.

56718 scored - now back to the wordtris challenge.

Cheers

very, very slick game!! the many different piece sets make what could have been a repetitive game much more interesting!!

I was particularly surprised when the fruit popped up

I'm a big fan of Tetris-style games, so this coupled with Wordtris has got me all excited to come up with a similar game myself

as usual, VanB comes through again with another quality release!

I do agree that a windowed mode option would be nice!

yeah, very nice little game - I got up to the playing cards
One thing I found though, was that the contrast between the colours of the pieces could have been higher - It got quite difficult to distinguish between the pieces, and I was just randommly dropping them down and hoping it would complete a row,


[EDIT]
yes! I got to the floppy disks for the second time
once again, very nice game, and i haven't come accross any bugs at all (Though i've only played one player)
Only thing would be to make the tiles higher contrast so it's easier to see which is which.

Thanks - glad you liked it.

Pincho amended the main.bmp file to give more contrast to the colours - should make for a more playable game (thanks Pincho).

Great gfx, great gameplay, great game

love the way the pieces fall when you destroy their supporting tiles.

Nice work
