How does your game relate to the theme?
Our game relates to the theme of Polarity because the main game mechanic is dropping tetrominoes with magnetized tiles which are polarized between red and blue, positive and negative, as well as polar in the sense of having magnetic poles. Completion of the game depends on the strategic placement of these magnetic poles so that they snap together and hold the tetrominoes together. Additionally, the game is set at the North Pole (!), where there is aurora borealis, which appears in our game as well. Lastly, there is a (somewhat unintentional) polarity in art styles within our game, as we have elements in pixel art and non-pixel art, which are complete opposites.

I liked your game. Nice spin on tetris with use of the theme.
What I did not like was the random spin the present get when dropped. This removes the aspect of skill somewhat for me.
When my plan was to drop in a specific orientation where it could stick to another magnet. In the end the present turned on it's way down and was in the wrong direction.
Nice game! And a good interpretation of the theme. I'll now be aware that the gift in my house is magnetic.
nice game. it bring back the memories of one of the first games I’ve played as the child(with added polarity XD). good work!
Im bad at this game. 0/10 Horrible entry, i hope you get kidney disease
But jokes aside, even if i suck at this game i still really enjoyed it, the gameplay is very creative and the art is pretty sweet aswell (the B in bloom stands for Best-Thing-Ever). Nice work!
