Its sad how many games still require to be downloaded and often run on one specific platform only...\r<br\/>(please dont take this personally!

However,  it was somewhat frustrating when the shape rotated whrn I just tried swipe to move. Sometimes the shape got stuck so that it did not go in the gap where it had gone on earlier runs. Had to restart the game as there is no retry button. That button would be useful for speedrunning as well. I liked the Tetris feeling and the funny texts along the course. Funny game, some new levels would be nice for further development."},{"author_name":"OnlySlightly","author_uid":"1959","time":"Apr 25, 2016 @ 11:29pm","epoch":1461626640,"text":"Super polished entry.

You can move and change shape to make your way down.\r\n\r\nI was originally going to make a tutorial and a real level, but it takes too much time to make real puzzles so i just extended the tutorial. I think it would be great if a game\/level designer here wanted to make a real puzzle game out of this.\r\n\r\nI started the game on my own and did everything, but my friend Aurelia (facebook.com\/Aurelia.Drawings) came and redid my rubbish sprites (thankfully).\r\n\r\nThis game was made with Game Maker Studio. It is also my first game with this engine and I'm pretty happy about the result.\r\n\r\nThis game was designed for android so everything is playable with a mouse. \r\n\r\n\r\nThank you very much for playing and reading. I hope you enjoy this game ! \r\nxoxo\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nupdate : Added a kick highscore to see your best time, added tuto for the swipe up, change sounds volume (music : down, sounds : up)\r\n\r\nupdate 2 (post Deadline) : \r\n\r\n- Corrected a typo in my nickname in the main menu screen ... Who does that ?!? \r\n     (I left the previous screenshot for those who wanna have fun)\r\n\r\n- Added Keyboard for windows (most complained about that and it was only copy\/paste some code, didn't write anything new) : \r\n    - WASD\/ZQSD\/up,down,right,left to move \r\n    - 1,2,3,4 to choose the shape\r\n    - Space to rotate","title":"Tetrashifter"}
