A new thought, tetris as a refernce would actaully make more sense. Different boats with various shapes, where only at certain places the boxes can be fit in. And then different shapes of boxes as well, I guess it would need also more boats which are slower. Might be a bit thought to balance so every box could fit at any time, but maybe you don't lose a live for a box, just loae some points.

Also a cool idea. Thanks for the input. I also had an other idea about using this game as the base for a game where you just have to load one boat (at a time) as full as possible. The pile of boxes, or even the boat can fall over if you do not divide the boxes evenly across the boat.
Also I am working on some completely different game ideas at the moment. I need to find some time to work more on them.
