An interesting twist on the classic puzzle arcade game we all love. By removing the restrictions of a grid and adding physics, this game is a new, yet familiar challenge. As the pieces fall from the top of the board, your goal is to last as long as possible without the game area overflowing. Lines are removed when you fill them up with enough pieces. The longer you last, the faster pieces fall and the more points you get. This is an open source game. Anyone can see the code on GitHub and contribute their own changes to the game.
