Arithmetris by MagmaFortress
Arithmetic + Tetris
NOTE: You must press "W" to rotate blocks despite what the welcome screen says.
Some quick clarifications of the rules in case things are not clear: - Satisfy equations to clear rows - Rows do not have to be full to be evaluated - =?2? will match: 021, 124, 729, etc. - Digits do not have to be directly adjacent to form multi-digit numbers - "8..2+3" = 82 + 3 = 85 - Each "-" negates the subsequent number. Multiple "+" have no effect - "-+1" = -(+1) = -1 - "-..-.1" = -(-1) = 1 - "++-1" = -1

Otherwise super cool idea, you should definitely release a polished version on mobile and market it as a math game.
Well done. :D
I was especially excited to find this game because I worked on a tetris+text-adventure hybrid. We encountered some of the same issues with difficulty when using letters blocks to form words.
Very cool concept though.
But that won't impact my raiting! The game is really good. Pretty convinient that you have 3 hold-spots. And the rotation was pretty useful for turning signs into operators.
Nicely done.
A very interesting and well-done experiment, even if I could only scratch the surface. I think my top score was 22.
OK I tried it once more with the music, and while I was fought a little harder at the end I still only scored 14. I did notice though that in button-hammer-dodging at the very end I accidentally insta-skipped my score view... maybe that should be passed with a spacebar?
Man this is tough, but interesting.
