January 14, 2024A block-stacking game is set in space where you place and use gravity fields to guide asteroids into lines and columns. Made solo for KrassJam.

Danterioids was created by me for a KrassNG jam, hosted by game dev streamer Krassenstein. A 4-colour game boy aesthetic was adopted whilst exploring how a tetris mechanic could be switched up when the playing-field could be rotated by the player.
I was pleased with the gravity mechanics to influence the path of the incoming asteroids. However, due to time restrictions, I did not manage to create asteroids of different sizes or shapes (think Tetris blocks), which made the concept of matching lines and rotating your device less meaningful.
