Hey, this game was better than I expected! Gameplay is pretty simple but also addictive. Maybe it's the new tetris...
Very nice integration with the theme, and ok menus and graphics.

once you figure out how to untwist the ropes it get a bit repetitive

great game!!! :) had tons of fun :)

Quite addictive. I played it for a while without even knowing what I was supposed to do.

The levels seemed to last too long.

Fun, creative and well done! It took me some time to understand the rules, but after that I loved
it!

It's much easier to see the game as several independent small puzzles. It could be interesting if the ropes interacted with each other more somehow, but I don't know how that would work. Like you said, it could've been a really cool logic game if you had more time. Anyway, this is a fun game, nice work.

Tetris with a twist, hehe :)
A simple and effective game. Difficulty is well balanced between the different difficulty levels, but I didn't feel it get any harder as the game moves on, which makes it get a bit repetitive.

Good graphics and Interesting game concept. But I think the game is not fun enough.

Its so addictive!

This game had an interesting idea that I didn't think worked out. When clicking in between rows, it'll twist or untwist both sets of rope (above and below). It could be cool in a strategy game, but I found it didn't help much in a timed endurance game; I was too busy reacting to take much advantage of it. Pity; it was a cool idea.

Other than that, it was all right for awhile, but eventually untwisting started to feel more like a chore than a challenge. Also, the control was too loose: moving the mouse quickly and clicking seemed to often register the mouse's previous position.

Nice. Bonus marks for poetry :-)

Quite fun, but it was very hard to work out what I was supposed to be doing. Were the colours meaningful in any way? Also, a few times I had bricks fall through each other, which I don't think was supposed to happen.

Needs some sounds, and some music. Great game though!

It feels like this game got some potential, but the current version gets boring quite fast once
you understand the basic mechanics of the game. I don't know whats missing..

A nice little game, well implemented.
<p>
Nothing seem to happen when the required number of rows is reached.

good fun!!

An interesting puzzle, some reminiscent of tetris. It gets a bit dull after a while; perhaps with an incentive to eliminate multiple pieces at a time it could be better (I was too tempted to play at the top or bottom lines, where I untwist a single pair of ropes instead of two pairs)

Game hung on initial window without drawing anything.

Excellent game. Thanks!

even easy is quite hard

(twisty_ropes-0.1a.zip) Great idea here. I can see lots of ways it could be better but the idea is a good one. I think this is exactly the sort of game that needs a fast keyboard interface. It could also have done with some sound/music.

is interested

interesting, once I realized if you don't work on the top row you can switch ropes in more than one block at a time.

1 1 1 yes

It just froze... Had to kill it using the task manager...

2 3 2

Funny but very tetris.

Nice start, but simply un-twisting the ropes isn't that challenging. Not bad if you consider the (lack of) time you had, though.. :)

3 3 3

Not bad. Not Great.

a slightly annoying manual bubble-sort algorithm
let the machine do this stuff.

I would like for this game it will have sound.

2 3 3

implementation is pretty slick (though at one point I got a block to fall inside another block), but gameplay wasn't very varied and got old kinda fast

3 3 3 yes

Unfortunately, this entry did not work for me ;/

Pretty fun, gameplay was very repatative though. Not much challenge in it :)

Doesn't work for me.
