Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

I might be in the wrong here, but I think Game Jam teams should do their darndest to upload a browser playable version unless there's REALLY no way their engine let's them export one...
Please, I want to play your game! But with 200+ submissions I'm not gonna download that many EXEs.

IT'S OUT!!!
Ochibana is Nest's entry for #FallingBlockJam, and we're so excited to bring you this match-2 hand-building puzzle game!
Hanafuda drop from the top of the board, and your goal is to choose how to store the cards you want to keep, and what cards to chain away to build your multiplier!

Ochibana (Fallen Flowers)
An arcade style versus puzzle game with a twist: there's a finite amount of pieces, and the game ends when they're gone. You score based on what's still on your board and your cleared pieces build your multiplier!

I was testing this version last night, and it has some absolute nonsense.
If you haven't played MD3 with us before, this is a great tournament to dive in.

This week for Puzzle Wednesday, we’ve got a spin on a classic: Magical Drop III Yokubari Tokudaigo is a sort of “rainbow edition” for MD3. with a smooth, responsive 60 FPS, a whole character rebalance and even items making its way to versus mode. Come explore it with us
