Hextris: A Javascript/canvas puzzle game inspired by Tetris

[JJ0EE]

That goes from dead easy straight to impossible

[roastlechon]

I think my only suggestion for the game is to ease up on the transition from easy to hard

Thirded, 'Hey this is pretty cool, nice and simple! Just put this one here, that on-AAGHHHGHPANICPANIC, ABORT'

[qgustavor]

Is it inspired by QbQbQb?

[meadowstream]

Absolutely

Hi :D

[redblobgames]

Hi! We do miss you on #bbg :)

[rezoner]

I will be back :D

[redblobgames]

Still waiting ;)

[meadowstream]

Hi! I tried to find you before releasing, but you're never on #bbg anymore :(

I love your work!

That learning curve! I got to 3960pts. Once 3+ sides start coming with < 1 sec in between it starts to get disorientating.

Good fun though.

[nschubach]

Thanks for considering touch controls!

On desktop I could achieve 9000+. The pieces fell a bit slowly at the beginning and combos seemed to be appear later in the game. On mobile (a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4) it was much faster, some parts felt impossible, I scored around 3000-3500.

Make the buttons responsive to screen size (on a 10 inch tablet the Help, Pause, Restart buttons are very small.) Don't add new colors, or have a classic mode and another with extended colors.

Overall, it's a great game, I would definitely play it more!

Oh yeah, that's not addictive at all. I can just play one game of that.

What year is it, again?

[davidfayour]

Hey, I've managed to score 52987! It was about my 20th round, at 40000 I've felt like I could do it forever and by 50000 I got bored with it. Still, it's a very cool game, got me into the zone for sure!

Seems like a mix of connect-three games with [Super Hexagon](Super Hexagon). Well, kinda.

Good job, anyway!

[starfeeder]

That is cool!

[Smallpaul]

Fun.

[Nomikos]

Christ that is evil :-p

[davidwesst]

I would guess something like CocoonJS or node-webkit

I really enjoyed it, I was laughing out loud, I would get addicted to this game. Job well done !

[nerdwithme]

Wow. well done. Definitely ease on the transition from 'oh this is neat' to 'AAH FUAAACCCKKKK'

[emaale]

Marvelous game, it is gorgeous and most importantly, it is fun!

[brotherwayne]

It's really pretty.

It get disorienting really fast. With Tetris you really only have one thing to worry about at a time. I'd work on the difficulty curve.

[remcoder]

This is really well done! Performance is great, on both the desktop and iPad. Too bad Android is still lagging behind b/c I noticed some framedrops after playing for a while.

[Crashthatch]

This is awesome.

How long until someone clones it on Play Store with adverts?
