CASCARA

Block puzzle game where combos actually matter.

Drop shapes on an 8x8 grid, clear full rows and columns, watch your score multiply. The catch? Your multiplier builds up every time you clear lines, but it resets the second you place something that doesn't clear. You get 3 grace moves to save your streak. After that it's over.

Sounds easy until you're at 5x multiplier and the board starts closing in on you.

There's a hammer tool that lets you smash a single block when things get tight. You earn it every 8 rounds. Sometimes you need that out.

The whole thing runs smooth with particles flying everywhere and probably too much screen shake for a puzzle game.

Difficulty scales with your score. Early rounds are chill. Hit 10k and the shapes start getting weird. By 20k you're playing chess with blocks.

I made this because I wanted a block puzzle that felt more strategic and less random. Spent way too long tuning the shape generation system to be fair but challenging.

Anyway, hope you lose some time to it.
