Use of the limitation
You misspelled incorporate. The game is traditional (a tetris like) but with two pieces at the same time, and with bizarre randomizers that make your pieces warp, swap, disintegrate into little blocks, turn around, and so forth.

Cookies eaten
I eat so many cookies in general, but I didn't eat any while developing this game. I did eat four donuts and maybe eight or nine little chocolate pieces.

This is a really interesting take on the tetris formula, my brain is definitely not fast enough but it was a lot of fun.

Developer

:-D thanks

This is so Ibiza I can’t even. 10/10 Chaos. Very well done.

:-D :-D :-D 💈🚂

This is absolutely wonderful - such a brilliant expansion on the basic Tetris mechanic, which felt at once deeply intuitive and incredibly challenging. Great range of modifiers, with the block splitting one in particular filling me with dread.

I was absolutely not prepared for Soup Break - genuinely burst out laughing the first time and ended up messing up a few times afterwards.

Superb game, loved it.

Thanks, this makes my day! You're still my favorite of the jam. I've been sharing Typecast around. It's just so good.

Double tetris? Love it

Submitted(+1)

The Intro gives me a vibe of a movie i dont even know i like it,The game is fun. But i dont understand the rules. It is realy chaos soo good work haha.

Developer

Thanks! One thing I've learned from looking at the other games is tutorials and controls in game is a must, so I'll do that next time.

Submitted(+1)

Yea you are right. Funny thing is i actually implemented a tutorial but then broke the project. I then startet over from a bakup. But because of time i did not implement the tutorial again but the other things i did before starting over.

Developer

Oh wow, tricky to navigate! Glad you were able to recover!

This game is really fun! It also looks really well made.

Developer

Thanks

Really enjoyed this, has a really nice polished feel to the game. The main menu design & music were really good. It was really challenging working 2 blocks at the same time and I was always terrible at Tetris but really good job on this! 

Developer

Thanks! I really liked System Overload too.

Brilliant game, I loved it! I really liked the concept of tetris-from-hell (and I mean that in a good way!), since it was easy to pick up the mechanics, but very challenging at the same time. I think it says something about my skill that I got a total of one row clear the entire time! The traps were also a nice addition, and added more to the chaos; not only did I have 2 pieces to manage, but I had to maneuver them around at the same time, which made things intense. The pivot points on the blocks were a neat addition, they made things a bit clearer. And I liked the leaderboard as well, it kept me playing just so I could scrape my way onto the bottom there! Overall, it was a really fun game, and it kept me playing longer than I should have done - excellent work!


P.s. glad I'm not the only one who noticed the incorporate typo!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! It's a ridiculously hard game, at least for me. I can clear a few rows sometimes :-P

Still really enjoying Core Error

Submitted(+1)

Extremely chaotic and fun! I like the whole "Dual Tetris" idea. The randomizers add to the fun as well! Great job!

Developer

Thanks!

Very fun and extremely chaotic !

The game is quite hard but that's okay, the main issue I had was in the browser build when I was trying to make the pieces fall down using the down arrow, my browser window would go down as well lol.

Really fun game and great music, good job !

Developer

Yeah, I couldn't figure out the browser issue on this go-around. I think I'll have it fixed before the next jam. Thanks much for playing!

Super fun, music was awesome. The game was fun and with the addition of multiple controllers and traps it fit the theme very well. Much enjoyed!

Developer

Thanks much!

Submitted

Nice game!

Developer

Thanks!

Nice Game! Pretty chaotic with having two blocks and the random power ups.

Developer

Thanks, I tried a bunch of other ideas and they were too chaotic, so I scaled back and ended up with this.

Submitted(+2)

Wow, nice!! I really like the concept! Although I am a little worried about you. You said you ate FOUR doughnuts during development? That is OVER 1 donut per day. Are you feeling okay? I give you my best regards.

Developer

Hahaha, thanks! In the spirit of overload, I actually ate them all in one morning, then the little chocolates, then no other sweet foods besides ^_^

Submitted(+1)

Your welcome! :)

Submitted(+1)

Awesome concept! Real difficult, although I feel like the "powerups" or whatever they could be called aren't entirely clear as to what they do. Had a fun time regardless, made it even more chaotic

Developer(+1)

Yeah, with more time, I think I would have introduced those gradually and with explanations. Thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea ! Pretty hard though

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah.

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea ! Pretty hard though

Submitted(+1)

It does seem quiet difficult! but good work!

Developer(+1)

Thanks!

Submitted(+1)

This game is really hard. Probably because it's designed for two players.

Developer

It's designed for one very frazzled player ^_^

Submitted(+1)

Oh, you wanted the player to do multitask ! You did a great job, in that case. I'll change my rating.

Developer

Thank you!
