This is cool, but you need to think about your colorblind users. The blue and purple blocks are, to my genetically deficient eyes, pretty much the same color.

Rainbow Blocks
by Nick Lockwood
Rainbow Blocks is a colourful block-sliding puzzle arcade game, similar to SameGame or JT's blocks. Rainbow Blocks 10K is a cut-down version of the iPhone/iPad game, which is available to play on the web or to buy on the App Store. More details here: http://www.charcoaldesign.co.uk/rainbowblocks

Really fun game. I played all the way to the end.

Very well done! However, I have to second Onychomys' comment about colorblindness (I can't tell the blue and purple apart).

Nice game, but you should think a little more about the gameplay. I always found that the best part about games like this was that you would "cleverly" let a massive amount of 1 color join together, and then murder it at the end for massive points. In this game though, you can't really do that, since there are so many colors that it's difficult to get the colors you want to come together. More, the rainbow blocks don't actually help anyone more than pure chance. The gameplay favors clicking randomly over strategy. Still, it was a very pretty game! You clearly put work into the graphical design, which is very nice.

I definitely agree with Grant - great graphical design, but random clicking is favored, making for a watered-down experience. One fun addition might be a limited chain-reaction that causes blocks of the same color to disappear when they fall upon each other after a user kills an especially large chunk.

Great game, I got addicted to this game on one sad WinMo device. M$ calls it Bubblebraker. One can spend hours with it. As of color-blindness, I think colors should be 100% saturated, 100% value, and variable hue. I think you sacrificed a bit of saturation to aesthetics.

Nice one, I like the added "rainbow bonus blocks". Not such a fan of the coloring though but still great for 10K.
What could you build with only 10 kilobytes of code?
That’s the concept behind this here 10K Apart contest, the love child of MIX Online and An Event Apart.
