Negative space block-stacking sharpens spatial reasoning through dual perspectives in this indie arcade-puzzler. Players drop blocks at high speeds without locking, turn obstacles into paths, and maintain balance to avoid the caution line. Slow motion activates near failure for extra survival time, while jumping recovers from low falls to keep the flow going.
Casual mode challenges endless survival, Relax mode offers unhurried zen stacking, and Master mode tests dual wielding for elite players. Local co-op pairs with a friend, or use Steam Remote Play for online sessions. DAS timers customize for speed experts. Pure block-stacking fans thrive on this straightforward action-strategy challenge.
Negative space block-stacking. Test and improve your spatial reasoning from two perspectives. Think on your feet, turn obstacles into paths, and practice balance to survive without crossing the caution line in this elegant arcade-puzzler.
GAMEPLAY FEATURES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fast-Paced Block Stacking
You can drop blocks instantly without locking them, allowing you to build at ridiculous speeds once you know what you're doing. For the Grandmasters: DAS timers are customizable. Everyone else: in the options menu, you can set how long until you move again automatically after moving once.
Slow Motion
The game ends when a piece gets placed across the caution line. When this would happen, time slows down to buy you time and help you survive for as long as possible.
Jumping
If you fell too low, don't worry. You can jump up and over small gaps. Simply move away from the ground to jump off it. Don't let one bad drop break your flow; fall once, get up twice.
Co-op Support
Play with a friend locally. (Or online via Steam Remote Play!)
Dual Wielding
If you think you're already a block stacking master, prove it with Master mode in single player by controlling two blocks at once. Depending on who you ask, this is either impossible, or two impossibles.
GAME MODES
----------------------------------------------------------------
Casual: Survive as long as you can.
RELAX!: Take as long as you like. (Boring? Maybe. Zen? Aggressively.)
Master: Good luck; you'll need it. There are credits if you survive for long enough, but I made the game and I couldn't get to them... Can you?
NONFEATURES

No Control Customization.
No Visual Customization.

I spent nearly a year trying to force in other modes and features, but nothing felt right. That left me with a difficult decision. Eventually I quit going against the grain and just kept the gameplay straightforward and simple for my first commercial game. This is just a humble block stacking survival game. To whatever small audience still wants games like that, bless your beautiful pure souls, and have fun stacking blocks in negative space!
