Neat, but I think that it should keep track of the highscore. It is possible to move tiles while they're falling, I don't know if they is an intended feature. I found it nifty that you could with this replace a falling tile with one in a column.

zevv...i hate you...

i know this site is all about the love but i hate you because i can't stop playing this freaking game.

it gives me joy, like tetris, as i manuever and think myself clever and then it takes away my joy as i begin to erect multi-colored skyscrapers of doom.

this game is cool and addictive. i don't play alot of casual games, that's why i asked if it was original or some fan remake. either way...good job.

You're welcome :)

That's because of the music. Try playing it without sound, you'll quickly get bored :)
(by the way: the music was shamelessly stolen from Desertplanet - Attack of the Mutant Mirages, 2003)

That's the most frustrating part of the game, there is *no* way of winning: in the end the blocks will always fall faster then you can handle them, piling up and building towers of frustration.

The gameplay is of course not really original, since it is clearly just a [variation on|rip of off] tetris, which humankind has been playing since the stone age. I've been told a similar (commercial) game exists, but I don't know any names or authors.

Anyway, good to hear you're enjoying it, even if this is in your own special way :)
