This is really fresh; massive combo potential, diverse chaining opportunities, and the polished perfection that Radiangames is known for. Very gettable.

If I port the games to Android, those versions would be more likely to have prominent IAP than the current iOS versions (any Ouya versions would likely be an exception) for obvious piracy-related reasons.

Beautiful, meditative game.
And it sports a colourblind mode (thought some might appreciate the info)

Such an elegant and seemingly simple game is incredibly deep with some really interesting diabolic twists like the magnetic pieces (once it lands in the field, while it can be slid left/right like any other piece, it doesn't fall any further).

WOWWWWWW, radiangames has done it again, going from their amazing twin stick games to this pretty amazing puzzle game, polished like no other, and its crack inducing and is very challenging...one thing the dev should do in a update when you get a combo you should be able to keep adding to it cause there is enough times to keep moving blocks after a combo starts to keep the combo going like poker smash if you have played it on ios or on 360.

also should add the music tracks from the other radiangames for more music techno choices .

oh yeah, and if you will add that voice in the future update, and connect it somehow with the gameplay - my hat is off to you

I've been so busy I totally missed this release. The game is very nice, a completely original puzzler with deceptively deep strategy and the usual great Radian style graphics.

None of the self published titles have IAP. Super Crossfire published by Chillingo has fairly inoffensive IAP.

Not typically my kinda game ... but bought anyway to support.

Mechanics are super simple but strategy seems to be deeper than it appears at first glance.
Love the aesthetic, of course.

Like that the variety of game modes give you the choice of whether or not you want to play against the timer - I much, much prefer puzzle games without clock pressure and this fits the bill.

Definitely recommended if you enjoy puzzlers, or for fans of the dev's style.
