I have never locked in so hard for tetris in my life, genuinly very fun and tenically fits the theme as it like get that small guy i crushed 10 times "outside the box"

That was actually surprisingly fun! I'm so glad the controls actually feel like tetris and even tho I'm not usually a fan of 'fake tetris blocks' like the one or two blocks being used in tetris clones, I think it was fair enough to be added in this one. I know this might have been added in to prevent softlocks but I think it's really funny that you can clear lines in this game too. Also I'm glad crushing the guy doesn't actually crush him and he moves to the next available spot instead.

Might have been a little too short tho but that's such a nice feeling after having just reviewed two games that took me an hour each to beat. Some variety would've been nice tho. Maybe an endless mode where you're just trying to build as high as possible and the water starts increasing faster and faster.

I like the creativity of trying to get out of the Tetris Box, it's too easy, quiet, and the AI character really likes to go to the left which was a little frustrating at times.

Decent, but not for this jam

It's really quick to beat, and it doesnt even try to fit the theme. Theres some potential
