This isn't really a complete entry I basically spent the weekend remaking my first Ludum Dare game and trying to refine some of its mechanics. Its a match 3 FPS where you shoot blocks to make matches and collect points and star pieces by destroying the blocks via matching. The overall objective is to fully destoy 3 of the match 3 star puzzles and deliver their cores to the center, thats how you win. I overscoped a bit and couldn't do any work on Sunday so I didn't get around to implementing the tutorial or a boss. I'm definitely gonna come back and update this game, I really like the concept but this is more of a week or month long project.

It's good!
And the mechanic of solving tile puzzles while in an fps in space WITH enemies shooting you is definitely quite unique. Well done!

Absolutely love the game! Controls are responsive, the matching is engaging, and I think the inclusion of enemies was a bold choice that ended up paying out in the end! My only complaint is that it's a bit too hard; I can't seem to finish even one cube before time expired.
