Worlds Collide
Tugtris combines Tetris-style grid-matching and row-clearing with real-time physics-based navigation, requiring players to steer a nimble tugboat to push, rotate, and align drifting cargo ships into perfect rows within the docking bays.

Fun game, and I love the local shoutout! It’s a novel idea and well-executed.
I did find a couple issues with playability:
But those are minor grievances; overall it’s a very smooth experience. Nice work!
I love the art and finish is top notch. I would love a video, I feel like I'm missing something. I did not get far. Javascript is misspelled (above).
Think of it like Tetris. push the boats into the right shipping lanes. Once a line is filled horizontally, it'll 'unload', just like completing a line in Tetris.
What throws me off is when I turn the tug left or right. My instinct is to press Up to go forward. Instead I need to keep pressing Left to push left. Then if I'm in the wrong place, the boat starts to canter. Then I panic and I can't fix it and it's frustrating for me. It's not long before the river is jammed.
I love the UI, and the character development with the different wakes is creative and beautiful.
This is really clever. I love the theme, and the clever use of gameplay here.
Super solid game! I wish i could push the boats down the water with the tug boat. It would be super fun with a longer runway for difficulty scaling. This was a ton of fun though!
