Very clever adaptation. however the fact that unlike original tetris here the row desappear from the bottom makes it more difficult and kinda unbalanced. great work

The idea was really cool, and it did feel satisfying to see blocks I placed become part of the soil. However, as others  mention as well, the game is a little difficult.

I liked the twist that you did on the Tetris formula. I think balancing the game so that it doesn't decay or rot as quickly would feel better. but that might just be my non-Tetris brain speaking. Great job!

Great game, loved the art and the music still being the original theme, it was a little too hard for me but maybe im just bad. a few things was missing for example a highscore and a place to view the next piece and if u really want to copy tetris a place so u can hold one off

but all in all great game!

I have to agree that the idea is really good, but I also thought that the game was quite difficult, maybe it's a skill issue haha

Nice play on an old classic, liked the music and the artstyle, very tense at times. 3/5

This is a pretty interesting twist on Tetris, it took me a while to realize that this is basically reverse Tetris and I was playing it normally for a bit lmao. There's no way that I'd be able to get really good at this. The graphics and overall execution is good though, good job :)

I love the violin tetris music but the game is very hard lol

We had a friend test it for us and he is pretty good at Tetris, in hindsight we should've added difficulties.
