How does your game fit the theme?
It was *going* to fit it by flipping the game view from one side to the other when you got blocked ("an end") and potentially enabling you to continue ("a new beginning") with the second side after "neutralizing" the vials on the backside view to give you more space.

But I didn't get as far as implementing it--I also started to think it maybe made a more compelling game if the back view vials got processed during normal game play. (Thus making it necessary/possible to plan your moves based on both views at once.)

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes.

Nice try, a tutorial would have helped tho. From my understanding, three same-colored balls in a row/column must be destroyed but they weren't being destroyed so there's that. And no audio/music made it drag for me. Wishing you luck with implementing the rest of the game.

A creative concept, however I think that the falling system is a bit too slow. Visual tutorials would also be appreciated so I can enjoy the game as soon as possible.

A bit too slow to my taste

The idea is quite interesting, kinda like the rotation of the board as a mechanic, would make for a really interesting polished game! Overall, quite nice! :D

This game is really confusing to play, maybe make a simple tutorial at the start!

Update: Turns out I did get the “revised” concept partially implemented before the deadline after all. :) Is it “more compelling”? Good question! :)
