The game also supports multi-touch.
INSANE SUPER MOVES! Thats right. This is most likely the first puzzle game to allow you to perform damaging super moves to clear large amounts of blocks! This is the only game on Earth with eye-beam shooting baby seals. Break blocks with fish inside to fill your fish meter. When its full, tap the fish meter to unleash a powerful super move!

DEEP GAMEPLAY! Drag blocks to move them around. Tap on blocks to rotate them. Match 4 or more blocks to create a colorful ice explosion! Delay explosions by placing same-colored blocks on top of eachother before they settle. Save blocks for later by moving them to the top.

DEVELOPING THE GAME! Hello, Im Jody McAdams! This game was created in a few hours a week over the course of more than a year. The engine was created by me from scratch using C/C++/Objective-C (XCode on Mac). The menu physics were created using Box2D. I drew the characters in InkScape (Mac/PC) and InkPad (iPad) and animated them in Synfig Studio (Mac/PC). I created the music using the Korg DS-10 (Nintendo DS) and Korg iMS-20 (iPad). I modeled the IceCubes using Blender (Mac/PC). I drew my textures in Paint Shop Pro (PC) and Gimp (Mac/PC). I programmed all the special effects and all of the gameplay. I put my soul into this game! I also had some help. The UI, replay and network code was programmed by my good associate. The "Igloos In The Sunset" background was painted by Lloyd Murphy.
FINAL MESSAGE! I hope you all enjoy playing this game as much as I did making it! If you have any problems, please email [email protected]. I want to help! If anyone has suggestions, please email me! I cant wait to hear your feedback!
