Why it's on the shelf
The cleanest example of a one-mechanic game in the library. Slide, merge, regret. It is here because it works equally well with a keyboard or a swipe and needs no explanation beyond the first move.
How to play
Arrow keys or swipe to slide the board. Click the frame once if the game needs keyboard focus, and use the fullscreen button above for a bigger view.
- slide and merge
- board lock detection
- score

The build above is the shelf version. If you want it re-skinned for your brand, retuned for a different audience, or extended with new mechanics, we quote each job by hand and deliver a new standalone build.
- Re-skin — palette, sprites, audio, logo and end screen.
- Retune — difficulty curve, level length, controls, mobile layout.
- Extend — extra enemy types, modes, scoring, save data.
Paid exports and rebuilds are in development. Nothing is charged yet — browse and play the shelf while we finish the request desk.
