In what way does your game fit the theme?
Block force provides chaotic gameplay from you trying to avoid aliens and clear lines at the same time. Block Force making the player have to play 2 different games at the same time makes it easy for the player to lose control when trying to stay alive.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Apart from looking at examples from the API and looking at an open-source, MIT Licensed project/tutorial for assistance, all the code was done by ourselves. Some sound effects were purchased and licensed by the people who worked on this project.

One of the best games I've played here
Really good graphics
The sound is really good
A really good job
Borderline impossible to last for extended periods of time, either separate the controls or make the success in one of the game benefit you in the other (like recovering health with each line of tetris cleared).
So, one game wasn't enough of a task, so you decide to make two for the jam? Kudos :P
Great idea, great execution, definitely one of the standout games of this jam. Well done!
Had so much fun playing the game! The combination of two oldschool games is great. Kudos to the whole team
Interesting concept combinig two diffrent games to make chaos :O The sound effects were on point and the music is fitting :]
Now lets addres the elephant in the room the game is increadibly hard :/ Maybe incresing the give rate of easy to use blocks like 4-1 block or 2-2 block can reduce the difficulty. Or you can give your spaceship force shield when clearing a line in tetris part that would be cool i think :p
Also if you could turn blocks around when in cornes that would be great :D
Overall it was definetly a chaotic experince i would like to play again if you decide to work on it amazing work !
I can't say I got very far in this game, but it was fun trying! A very creative way to mash up two games, and there was absolutely chaos.
What a fantastic game idea. I don't even have any feedback other than maybe giving the player a little more health. This is the first game I give 5 stars in all categories lol
This was so hard! But creative! And amazing visuals at this size! Music fit in just well. One suggestion would be… Add an easy mode maybe (like slowing down the tetris blocks or just not making the spacebar both shoot and drop the block) because it gets really hard not to lose, especially on the tetris side of things…
Give my game a try? /jam/brackeys-6/rate/1077360
Bloody hell this game is hard but i honestly had no problems or complaints functionality wise it just beat me up really bad LOL. Looks great plays great a good idea and a game that hates you just for playing it (in a good way!). Really good work!!

interesting but the tetris field is kind of small and I'm really missing the ability to move the piecese a little bit even after they touch the bottom
I managed to make a few lines but I'm not really good enough at tetris to be good at this
