Geoblast (Playdate)
A downloadable Playdate game
Geoblast is an arcade puzzle tile-matching game, inspired by games such as Dynomite, Puzzle Bobble/Bust-a-Move and Magical Drop, exclusive to Playdate.
-- FEATURES --
| 5 Game Slots | 5 New Gamemodes to explore | 20 New Missions to complete |
| Highscore Saved Data | 5 Stars to complete for each Gamemode | and more! |
-- MODES --
- Classic Mode: Simple mind game and strategic use of moves remaining. If the number of moves reaches 0, it adds a new row and refreshes the number of moves.
- Timed Mode: Race against the timer! Get a new highscore before time runs out!
- Timed Row Mode: Everytime the timer ends, it adds a new row and resets the timer. However, the resetting also removes 1 second from the maximum time. Be careful!
- Relax Mode: No time limit, no need to play strategically: you can take all the time you need! The only way to lose is when a tile reaches below the line.
- Mission Mode: Complete all 20 Missions, where each one has an objective to reach, from a "simple to solve" Puzzle Mission to a "all tiles are '?'" Hidden Mission!

This is a great and fun version of Hack*match! Just what I was hoping for. I have two issues: 1, when there is a match, the playdate has a framerate drop. It would be great to mitigate this. 2, the current system doesn't register blockings that are made of four that should auto-clear. This is a much-needed addition! Other than this I love the game and different play styles. Would really love an "original" that moved down on its own, too.
Another thing I've noticed: your games (all three for PD) have the "Use the crank!" popup on when it doesnt need to be on. It would be better to hide this notification most of the time.
its very funny
