Super clever idea! Very fun and perfect balance between skill/strategy and randomness.
Also - cool interpretation of the theme.
(I got an error about array out of bounds when placing one of the blocks on level 3 or 4 :D)
I agree with windsach.
I lost track of time in my rush to review as many games as possible.
Top tier. Favourited. Followed.
Nothing more to say.

I genuinely forgot I was playing to rate a jam game. a fun time sinker that you just enter a flow state into, what a game!
This is such a great well polished game that takes a creative puzzle spin on the theme! I really enjoyed playing it. Great game ^^
One of the best games of the jam with a strong connection to the theme. Really satisfying overall, I did want a bit more of a challenge but understand it was made a little easier for the jam. Good luck!
Extremely addictive, perfectly polished. Just amazing graphics. Amazing work!! Seeing works like these remind me why i started making games in the first place <3
Wow, this is a standout right here. The graphics, the gameplay... you guys and gals have some genuine game design chops. Great job.
fun game, would be nice if your excess points carried over or if there were some reward for it as it feels nice getting a big number but not as nice then if it was at the end and kind of wasted especially since the blocks would have stayed there for the next round. after the first game the first few waves feels a bit slow to where I Was just placing blocks where ever and Didn't even realize until after that I passed where I previously died.
I really enjoyed this, it was surprisingly challenging to score combos but so satisfying when I did!
5 stars, that's such a cool game! I had a lot of fun playing it, the mechanic is very clever with a good strategic part, and satisfying juicy feedbacks! Congrats for that amazing work! 😄
Insanely satisfying when you can set up a chain reaction that clear out the whole board! Very well polished with great visual feedback and sound effect. Great work!
Rank 08 with 1362 points! This game was awesome in pretty much every way, from the amazing pixel art to the music and sfx when destroying blocks. It really gave me that drive to continue restarting after losing and seeing how far I can get. It's such a fun and addicting game, and really fun when you get big combos and see the big number go up.
I think my only criticisms I have are that not everything was explained as well as it could have. The tutorial didn't explain what the goal was, so at first i thought we had to avoid destroying the blocks lol. Also it wasn't clear what the ice blocks actually did. But yeah the game itself is pretty much flawless so well done everyone.
