heh chaos mode was a fun little surprise. Only thing missing I think was making the player goal at bit more clear as I was clearing pieces while the screen got bigger but not sure what I should be aiming for aside from a high score. Very nice theme and cool that you were able to make a sound menu in the time available!

This is a nice entry. I really like the sound design, especially the effect for completing a line. I also think the addition of extra columns as you scale out is a very interesting play on classic Tetris. I wish there were more varied shapes, especially early on, as they early levels make it easy to simply wait for the perfect piece to appear. Really nice art direction as well- I love the background for the board as well as the main background with all the bees!

MegaFaunaThank you for the feedback, there are 15 different combs, but the order and balance needs a lot more work, did not have time to playtest so just made them in order of number of hexes and how complicated the shape is , maybe adding new combs at 2k score was also an extreme measure, might tweak it after the jam to clean it up.
Interesting game, but it is pointing out probably why hexes aren't used for Tetris: left and right forces to drop farther.

Wizard Tower Mis-hopGreat game! It took a little getting used to to figure out how hexagonal Tetris worked, but it was very fun!

The Culminating CryptsFirst off, not a game dev!
This is a cute little Tetris clone, although I'd say the controls are too sensitive (one full keystroke on my Corsair K100 RGB moves the blocks two spaces instead of one), "Credits" is mis-spelled in the menu as "Credis," and the "Exit" button does nothing. I'd also like to see the option to play with more than WASD. Outside of that, this looks lovely!
Thank you for the feedback, yeah proofreading was clearly lacking, will cleanup after the Jam.
Weird to hear about the 2 moves on a key tap, i have different timeouts for rotation movement and lowering, maybe a key tap is longer that the move timeout somehow.
I had the option to set different values for each game mode but did not have time to tweak that also, will definitely make the solo/duo modes less fast paced than chaos variants after the jam ends :)
Will also add some controls menu also, got some feedback that some solo players want to use the arrow keys instead of wasd.
