great "jump" mechanic with the bomb placement. this is one of the better games i've played. i really felt the pressure timing and placing bombs and avoiding drops. well done!

I think this is the best game I've played this LD. It sounds great. It looks really good. The game play is innovative yet nostalgic.

For the sake of critical feedback, I'd suggest more of a delay between when the bomb turns red and when it explodes, but that's really just a nitpick.

Excellent job!

Not my type of game but still played it and it turned out to be good.

When I accidentally placed a bomb where a box was going to fall, I realized that's a pretty good idea, and felt clever! If you continue to develop this, with using left and right inputs with unpredictable drop locations in a small number columns, I died quickly and didn't recognize what technique I should practice.

This game ticks some important boxes for me: easy to grasp after 10 seconds without lengthy instructions, challenging and tactical arcade gamestyle, simple but consistent graphics, lots of juicy effects, ... very good game!

Absolutely amazing! I love the concept and the gameplay of it! I don't have anything to criticise about it. The controls are nice, and the game is very balanced. Good job!

So addicting! I reached 10K once, now I'm stuck at 3K at best >_<

Great entry, fitting the theme really well and super polished for a compo submission. Mechanics are pretty clever mechanics: seemingly simple, but there's more to them, adding some more depth.

Awesome job, congrats!

Nice bomberman reference you executed in this game, although it was pretty hard to get a hang on. The falling of the blocks matches the rhythm of the music, so it made me more pumped up to stay longer before I get blown up by a bomb. A really fun game.

Gets wild pretty fast. Probably the most addicting one I played so far this LD. Great music, graphics, very polished. 5/5 from me.
