Hello everyone. I have just implemented some 'so-requested' achievements that should be available for Windows and Linux version for now. Let me know if you managed to unlock at least one.

The simplest one is to gather 2000 points on match-three mode.

“It’s not just the karaoke Still Alive clone playing in the menu that makes you want to tend to these blocks like they’re your children.”
Indie Statik

“The more triplicates a player completes, the more starts happening, with butterflies and fireworks and flourishes like flowers in a strong breeze”
The Indie Mine

“Where QbQbQb really stands out is in its soundtrack. Each level possesses an original, cheerful electronic track that’s instantly catchy”
Enemy Slime

It's like tetris on crack. Absolutely love the soundtrack though.

For maximum awesome, headphones recommended!
Soundtrack is outstanding!
There is also the karaoke in main menu similar to "Still Alive" (Portal ending theme).

This cute little game was inspired by Rymdkapsel (pastel colors), Tetris (falling blocks) and Gyro (rotating planet).
Basic rules are simple - stack blocks with the same color to erase them, try not to stack blocks above the borderline or you'll lose one heart, get as many points as you can to unlock more levels and toy-achievements.
There are three difficulty levels (Easy/Stack three, Medium/Match three, Hard/Mirror) and six planets in single player mode and two local multiplayer modes.

Now as an eternal being I rescue other planets :3

QbQbQb will have you fitting blocks into a spheroid and thus depending perhaps whether you're left brain or right you will see influences from Klax, Tetris or both. QbQbQb is well implemented, polished and atmospheric.

Features include a colorblind mode, coop, versus, starting difficulty, a simulated karaoke intro and a cool soundtrack. All functions are supported using keyboard, mouse and controller. Steam implementation includes additional anomaly remediation, full screen and coop.

A new found gem. One of those must haves in any library for that proverbial quick fix.

Nice stylized game with a great retro/techno soundtrack. My favorite feature is the local coop and controller support, not many music games have coop. I find some of the zoom in and out quickly animations a bit queasy but I know intense animations are often a staple of the music genre. Would be nice to be able to disable that though.

Currently the game doesn't take advantage of any free Steamworks features (no Steam cloud, leaderboards, achievements, online multiplayer etc...) but perhaps some of those will be added in the future.

Overall it's a nice game to pick up and play for around 20minutes at a time. I'd recommend buying it to anyone that likes music or local multiplayer games.

Enjoyable little arcade game with a great soundtrack. More suited for short sessions since you can "finish" the game (aka unlocking the last planet) in less than an hour, but with achievements coming and maybe leaderboards, the replay value is pretty nice.

Fast and fun circular match-3 game with awesome music (Soundtrack dlc please!). Extra points for mouse only control option so I can pet my cat while I play.

This generation's tetris, it hits all the right notes with interesting music, strategic block placement and the panic of ever shrinking options. It has various game modes, level sizes and has co-op, versus!

Also 3d vision works with the game, with blocks dropping down as opposed to falling in from the side.

A fun puzzle game that I can best describe as tetris on a rotating board.
Do not let it's looks deceive you it gets very tough very quick.

Nice game but watch out, play it for to long and you will be hooked. Its really addictive, The soundtrack is very hypnotic also, You will soon find yourself noding you head along to the tunes and before you know it a hour has flown by. Its a great little indie game and it may be a bit basic buts thats all part of its charm.

Sublime.

It's simultaneously relaxing, engaging, challenging and creative.

Haven't seen a decent, or interesting new take on the puzzle genre in a while. Last puzzle game I enjoyed this much was Chime, which has entirely different mechanics, but sets a similar mood.

Got it in a bundle, but it's definitely worth the full retail price.

One day I woke up and there was no sky above.
Not a single cloud. Seriously, not a single cloud...
Something beautiful may happen.

And I still don't know if it's alright to stack more than three blocks.

While the game is pretty enjoyable the first ten minutes, I have to say that the amount of particle and light effects on screen completely ruins the experience for me.

It is very polished but pretty repetitive. I play co-op, which seemed to have a large amount of input lag or unresponsiveness (Keyboard/Mouse and Controller).

Versus was a pretty fun little game mode, but as mentioned, the amount of screen shake, light effects, and particles on screen makes it difficult to see what the player is doing.

This game is very much like tetris, but with one block shape, and a round base platform instead of a flat one.

I do not recommend purchasing or spending your time with this game. Perhaps the second one will be better

this game is the best tetris reboot ever!!!!!! it's sooooooo hard in the way that you have to flip your brain match things Dr.Mario style but you need to move around a planet to match and it's fast. the gol is to get all the planets by colecting 1000 points on the previous planet. to get points you can place blocks or remove a set of blocks (each gives you one point per block) if you remove sets then you get X2 then X3 ect, on whatever you do for the next roughly 4 seconds. over all 9/10

I got this game in a bundle for about £2.99. In hindsight, I'd buy the game for full price alone.

I enjoy this game a lot. Very unique. Not too many achievements but few achievements that there were are very good... apart from the 2000 points in co-op mode one. I hate that sort of thing, prevents 100% completion.

Edit after completion: The game is too easy. Overall, 9/10. The co-op achievement knocks it down a point.

I'm still trying to reach 2,000 points in co-op mode... alone (got 1647). Close to changing my review to not recommended.

Combination of tetris meets match 3. Great for a casual 15 minute coffee break. The music and lo-fi graphics are pleasant and accelerate as the game progresses.
