Block Drop
FAST-PACED ARCADE ACTION
Block Drop is an arcade game that combines elements of falling block games and match 3 games.
Blocks of five different colors will drop from the top of the screen, and stack up at the bottom of the screen. When the stack of blocks grows taller than the top of the screen, it's game over.
When blocks of the same color collide, they are destroyed and you score points. But be careful - when you destroy a block, a larger block of the same color will be dropped soon.
Move your mouse to change where blocks drop, and use your keyboard to move blocks while they fall.
Develop strategies, refine your skills, and find the flow state to beat your high scores!

Special thanks to my friends who helped me playtest Block Drop. This project wouldn't have gone nearly as far had it not been for your support, encouragement, and feedback.
