Really neat take on the theme! I actually find this gameplay loop much more engaging than suika game or other similar ones because of the natural time pressure it puts on you. I eventually found a strategy that works maybe a bit too well, as I was able to beat the hardest AI difficulty level - I think the AI maybe prioritizes quickly dropping gems a bit too much over making smart plays. Maybe for game balance there should be a slightly larger hitbox between the gems so it's a bit less finicky, but otherwise it's really well designed as-is!
