You got PuyoPuyo in my Tetris!
You got Tetris in mu PuyoPuyo!

Er, wait, no - they are just sitting next to each other un-mingled.



Play one or the other (or switch between both at will) against friends and family!

is it me or what you see at 0:43 it looks like they're playing puyo and tetris simultaneously (with alternating control)?

i've played dual tetris but

[Wall of Beef]

Yeah, it seemed to switch to Puyo and put the Tetris game into a slo-motion state. So the blocks were still falling but hopefully you bought yourself some time and not much of a mess for when it switches back.

how viable would it be to have both games' matching logic active simultaneously on one field?
like, have the tetrominos be made of puyo's, clearing lines as well as groups of four adjacent same-colour puyos.
would need to think about how to handle gravity of course, but i could see it being amusing / sheer chaos / the danmaku of the puzzle genre.
dual matching principles have been done before (thinking Keeper / Kuwagata Tsumami), it's neat.
heck i'd love to try puyo puyo with a dual match-four principle (match by colour / match by shape).



i'm actually kinda bored with puyo puyo ( ._.)

OH man you could have a neck bead meter and as you get more fedoras it grows until it becomes a tripping hazard. You'd have topics and web sites you need to avoid falling among the fedoras. The goal is to get as may fedoras as possible and the game ends when you drop too many or embarrass yourself online.

i have a GB color magical drop it was fun for a while.
should i give it another chance? there's a DS game?





on topic (?):

[Loki Laufeyson]

unfortunately, there's no s magical drop, but if you have a piracy device, neoDS is pretty great so you should be able to emulate the neogeo version of magical drop 2 or 3

solid reasoning bren ^_^;

[guest253]

you do have a point there ^_^;

but then still "how so?" > "screw you"

[colour_thief]

Booter literally owns more copies of Puyo Puyo than all of us put together.

[notbov]

any game that's fast enough in high-level play to require best-of-100 sets has to be a little bit awesome

me? I find chaining mostly impenetrable because my brain doesn't work that way, but I still like it.

fever mode is just about the worst possible solution to that problem though. i mean it's pretty much the ultra combo of the puzzle genre. if you're gonna throw pre-fab chains at me then you can go trigger them yourself too, game. t(>_< t)

it's like "here look we did the actually challenging work of building a chain for you now you just put the last block in and feel like a pro, yes right there good girl here have a SFX sequence and some particle effects" and then my dopamine center just go like "nope" and the whole thing just ends up feeling gross and insulting.

the main thing about the Puyo series is that Puyo Puyo 2 has one of the most note-perfect soundtracks ever created for a game

guys tell me how すやすやグーピー DX/Deluxe compares

I'm pretty sure they prototyped all kinds of mechanics and went with the one that felt the most fun, then tuned it. Precisely its arbitrary nature makes me think it's the result of empirical evolution (also it's really easy to hack together Puyo Puyo variants in a couple hours of coding). Sure we can come up with ideas that might sound better on paper but that doesn't mean they'll work out in practice.

[guest253]

"it's probably the only solution they managed to get to work" is not a very strong defense of a game system izzit?

...especially if said solution feels conspicuously arbitrary and also insulting to the player?

[Wall of Beef]

New trailer:



Shows some "Swap Mode" where you cycle between both games. When Puyo Puyo is up, Tetris is sidelined but still "going". Your piece just seems to fall slowly until you are done with Puyo Puyo, then it swaps you back to Tetris while Puyo Puyo slows down.
