Droptype

Description:

Droptype is a match-4 falling block puzzle game without rotation. Try making chains under pressure while keeping yourself from overflowing, or just drop blocks and watch them clear themselves.



The idea is to makes blocks of the same type adjacent to each other. When four or more of the same kind are touching, they immediately clear. Blocks above them fall, and if that creates another clear, then you've made a chain!



Controls

Up: Move Left

Select: Drop Floating Piece

Down: Move Right

Back: Pause to Main Menu



The game is endless, you lose when a block overflows. However, when you chain -- that is, clear blocks successively before getting your next floating piece -- you gain a free block. When you overflow with free blocks, you lose free blocks instead of losing. Droptype however is wary about letting you have too many free blocks, so there is a risk.



The game features a Main Menu in which you may press back to pause your game. There is also an Infinity Mode. In this mode, there is no drop timer and thus no clock to race against. This reduces battery usage to just whenever the status clock updates, when you press a button, or the animations. If you like the game enough, you can pretend it's a watchface! Infinity Mode appends an infinity to your score to let others know how you obtained the score.



Droptype becomes progressively more difficult the longer you play it.
