1.02
- Added difficulty levels
- If you switch out of BM2 while it's running, the "Aggressive task" setting will be reduced to 0 until you switch back in (in order to play even nicer with multitasking)
- Fixed a crash issue related to starting a new game
- Fixed an issue that occasionally caused the ending to be skipped if the game was completed at least once during the same session
- Fixed an issue that occasionally denied you from the game completion bonus
This update is recommended for everyone.
1.01
- Balanced scoring
- Bugfixes to line detection (it missed some cases)
- If you complete a level, the background on 'Aftermath' will be blue instead of red
- Made line detection more efficient, giving a more 'real-time' feel
- Selection visuals in 'Options' were made less vague
- The piece you have currently picked up does no longer count as a part of a line
This update is recommended for everyone.

Screenshots
Public Opinion Overall Rating: 9.6 8The game is slightly too hard. I think Normal mode should be what Easy is now. Reconfiguring of controls didn't work. Some text is printed below screen on continue/cancel screen. It would be nice if new highscore names could be entered directly and not using that arcane point-at-letters method. Otherwise, great work! I love the level start cubes zooming in effect and the intro is hilarious. 10Top notch puzzle game. Level 26 is almost impossible to beat though... 10Terrific puzzle game, but hard mode just isn't hard enough for hard core gamers (hard mode level 26, 3.4 million points on my second time playing). Perhaps the Rubik's spins could go faster on hard mode, so the player couldn't rotate arbitrary rows to buy time? Also some variety in music & theme for difficulty settings would be a nice addition (childish colors & music for easy, dark & quick theme for hard). A+ in presentation, B+ in gameplay. Also: upload some more action-packed screenies!
