Centrist

About This Game

Centrist is a block stacking game where your goal is to place blocks around the center piece in a perfect square formation. Blocks will appear from 4 different directions. The game gets harder as you destroy more blocks.

The player has 10 health and the game will end once it drops to 0. If a block is placed at the spawning line, you will take 5 damage and nearby blocks will be cleared. If a block falls off the board you will lose health depending on the number of blocks the piece has (Bombs will always deal 5 damage)

10 points for each block destroyed
1st layer = 640 points

Special blocks:

Once there are at least 20 blocks on the board every 5th block will be a bomb. The more blocks there are, the more powerful effects you will get. Bombs will explode upon collision and can be detonated sideways.

• Bomb: destroys all blocks in a 3 x 3 range
  
• Big Bomb: destroys all blocks in a 5 x 5 range
  
• Filler Bomb: creates blocks in a 3 x 3 range
  
• Beam: destroys all blocks in a line
  
• Mega Beam: destroys all blocks in 3 lines
  
• Shockwave Bomb: forces blocks within a 5 block radius to collapse towards the center
