Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“To fine-tune the balance of the competitive rules and verify that the game runs properly.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Until the game balance is settled and we have confirmed that the game generally runs without issues. We expect this to take about three months, but it may be shorter or longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We expect very few differences. However, the game balance will likely need some adjustments.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is nearly complete. What remains is to verify that it runs properly and make balance adjustments.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price after Early Access ends is expected to be about twice the current price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will consider suggestions for rule changes submitted via email, discussion forums, and social media, and implement those we consider appropriate. We also welcome bug reports.”

About This Game

2ndwaves is a falling-block puzzle game where you build chains to reach your target score. Connect four or more blocks of the same color to clear them, causing the blocks above to fall. Arrange your blocks so that each clear leads to the next, creating longer chains.

The controls are designed around hard drops. Warp left or right, rotate blocks 180 degrees, and drop them exactly where you want them. Put your plans into action in an instant.

Launch one chain, then build the next. Unleash a second wave and reach your target score in less time.

In VS mode, build chains to send Obstacle Blocks to your opponent and cancel out incoming attacks as you battle for victory. Go for big chains!

  • POINTS PER CLEAR = BLOCKS CLEARED × (CHAIN BONUS + GROUP BONUS + COLOR BONUS) × 10

  • POINTS ÷ 80 = GARBAGE BLOCKS
