I've seen bullets pass through enemies. I've even seen bullets pass through blocks. And why is the sequence of tetraminoes the same every time? Or at least several first ones.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>There are some more bugs. I've managed to rotate a shape and get it stuck inside the was. And if you drop a block on an enemy that's about to hit a tile, the tile moves up and gets overwritten by your block.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, I liked the game, especially graphics and music. But I didn't find myself playing it for a long time. Maybe because I player enough tetris."},{"author_name":"j_peeba","author_uid":"5503","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 10:34am","epoch":1429525740,"text":"Thanks for the feedback!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The problem with bullets passing through things happens (at least on my computer) with the HTML5 version. It's probably due to the fact that I don't use continuous collisions with them (d'oh!) so a sub-60fps framerate can make the bug more pronounced. Of course this bug should apply to the standalone as well if it runs slowly.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And I definitely feel for you on the shape rotation... The one thing above everything else that I would fix with the game at the moment is the rotation code. It's buggy and unwieldy to use. :)"},{"author_name":"morgondag","author_uid":"51821","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 11:00am","epoch":1429527300,"text":"tried the experimental html5 mode it was experimental.\r<br\/>But I get the concept and I think you should continue working on this idea its a great concept! polish, add gamepad support and put on xbox\/steam!"},{"author_name":"TD5","author_uid":"39783","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 11:38am","epoch":1429529580,"text":"I appreciate having the HTML5 mode, even if it is a bit buggy.

I like that you built on the original Tetris game by adding in the extra defense\/shooting mechanic. It's surprisingly fun and addictive! The music is excellent too.

The gameplay twist really changes how you play, and the enemy's attack of replacing a block with one right above it is very thoughtful.  I highly recommend anyone who plays this to use the Windows version, as the better performance affects the gameplay.  I'd love to see this get polished up post-compo, so the piece movement would be a little smoother.  I could play this for a long time! Great work!"},{"author_name":"felipeberquo","author_uid":"49881","time":"Apr 29, 2015 @ 10:08pm","epoch":1430344980,"text":"Beautiful!!!
