Whoever likes Dr. Mario or Puyo-Puyo really should play Cuyo! It’s awesome! :)

Yes. The level design is awesome. Every level plays almost like a separate game of its own, with its own individual logic for how to win. Makes your brain go BSOD.

Interesting video. Which other puzzle games do you play? And not counting puyo puyo, which one is your favourite?

Almost anything you can name, I’ve probably played it.

If I had to pick just one, I think Petal Crash is the best thing that’s happened to the genre in over a decade. Maybe even the only good thing that’s happened to the genre in over a decade…

Never heard of it. Adding it to my list, will check it out.




Dr. Mario 64 is my family’s most played N64 game by far. It didn’t hurt that it was a game that my dad actually found a taste for. One of the things that made it so easy for everyone to play is that you could adjust difficulty individually for everyone until it felt fair.

I doubt any of us were playing at the highest level of competitive play, but the reason garbage would be a factor for us is when you start taking risks to catch up to a player in the lead. Otherwise, I always appreciated that it was sort of a race to clear your own board. Garbage does slow people down, and not just in the animations but in how much time it takes to clear the garbage from what otherwise would have been an easy clear.

I said this before when you made your Puyo Puyo video, but if you’re left wanting by the state of the competitive puzzle gaming scene, even if you’ve never made a video game before, nothing could be a better target for a first project. The barrier to entry is just about zero these days. Take your pick of Godot, Game Maker, Unity, or Unreal, and iterate on one of these.


Dr Mario is the best!

I correct that as Dr. Mario is the best one off stacking game when you’re high as hell and your friends are cool with taking turns… competitive is bonkers…

Also solo I dare anything to get past lv18 -20 at med to adv speeds…
