fun game =) spot on with the physics- the mass, friction, inertia play very well. and the vertical scroll while building has a great feel to it. you might want to add some more collision sounds- whenever i spill a large tower i expect large crashing noises ;) and some diversity to the sounds when stacking toys might add a lot- like a soft sound when stacking dolls and a hefty sound when stacking boxes. overall: great job! =D

thanks a lot :D really encourages me to make more game :D
Damn! It's hard. At first I was like, well, tetris with a twist, and then realized that i should have read the instructions, and shit got real. Nice overall game, Music was kind of unfitting, yet is the kind of music that most of these games use, so it's not that bad. Good controls, didn't lag or anything, Presents looked nice, and i guess i don't have anything bad to say about this. Good job, and keep it up!
A very challenging game, for sure! This game puts a twist to the Tetris genre, mostly by combining physics and new shapes. A welcome addition to NewGrounds. Merry christmass to all! ;D
Good game for a beginner. Here are my suggestions and thoughts.
-Graphics are nice and smooth.
-The game moves a little slow, maybe speeding up as you go along would be a good idea.
-Someone said changing background and I'd have to agree. It's add a bit more flavor and give something a bit more to look at.
-More music would be good
-An option to quickly and easily end your current game would be very nice.
-Pointy presents were a nuisance. I would either remove them or reduce their frequency.
-A way to turn the presents, instead of just rotating 90 degrees would be great. Maybe using shift and the arrow keys.
-I loved that you had an option to mute the game. I've seen games made by much more experienced people that didn't have that and it's always annoying.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Hope you found it helpful!
It's sorta like tetris and it's cool how you don't think completly inside the box. It's a great game seeing that you're a student developer, and I overall thought it's fun and challenging. The background was just a little boring. maybe you could change it a little bit? The graphics were also really good. 4 stars?
