I like it, it's quite nice. The effects are a bit too extreme for my taste but overall, well done! :)

thanks for the feedback.As for the effects i was really just trying to see how many things i could throw around the screen using a particle emitter module i created on a low end android smartphone.Turns out its loads.Monkey really is very impressive.

A little stretched and blurry on my nexus 7 (not overly so but noticeable), Like Xaron I thought it went a little over the top with explosions and particle effects - other than its a free match 3 game and it's made with Monkey so thumbs ups.

Works fine on my HTC One X, no sign of any slowdown!

A couple of things, each time you go to the options menu, the music volume resets itself and I found the first level that introduces the unmoveable blocks a bit unfair. In as much as, the random placement of them made it impossible for me to match anything around them, regardless of how many times I shuffled the play area.

That all said, a nice twist on the match 3 idea! To start with I was sceptical about being able to move each block wherever, but it does actually work well.

Yeah i reset the volume and effects to midway when i go to that menu.Will definitely change that.Did you try using the block bonus button to remove the blocks as you should have a few of them by the time you got to that level.
I have actually updated the game as i found a couple of bugs myself.Sometimes it doesnt save correctly if you move from the campaign mode to highscore challenge.Will be putting this version in soon.

really enjoyed playing that. I find it hard to beat the levels with blocks without using the block bonus but then again I suck at any match three games so that's probably just me. either way really good game.
