At first I felt like I was just randomly clicking around. But once I figured out what I was doing it became really fun! I really like the idea here, and the art is really great.

Ohh, this is a nice idea. You don't even have to explain, figuring it out is a cool moment :)

Nice idea, but was not the most user friendly game.

Very good game concept, and looking good too! Would have been nice if the difficulty scaled a bit so you don't get overwhelmed early on. Had some fun with it :)

This is a great concept. Pretty novel idea. A little bit unpolished as only a weekend game can be, but something I can really see working, given enough care for animation, user experience and the alike.

Overall, good job!

Fun! Took me a bit to get the hang of the rules, but after I got 'em down it was good challenge - sort of like a horizontal tetris!

I really like the combination of tetris and a wall defense game. The art is also well done and fits the game well. It would be nice if the game was a little less random, if one could choose field shape and field type.

It would be great if there was an explanation of the gameplay, but other than that nice game!

A bit difficult, but it's a nice game. Maybe I would try it with less variables or with incremental difficulty.
Congratulations!

The game has a nice idea to it but I think it is too challenging.

I liked figuring it out. Maybe there could be 2-square pieces to start to make it easier at first. Cool idea!

Nice game! Right click would be useful for rotation.
