picnic panic!

Wednesday, September 25, 2024 (gamez)

picnic panic! is a fruit themed clone of tetris attack and shock switch from flight rising originally made for the “strawberry to the heart” game jam in march of 2022! match berries to fill the basket, but don’t let the board overflow! (alex and i originally finished this up on march 16, 2022, so expect a few bugs! i tried to squish most of ‘em before putting this up self-hosted, but i’m not a superhero!)

controls

use your mouse to click on the board and swap two fruits! press W or space or left-click on the berry bumper to make a new row of fruit with the berry bumper to match more fruit for combos! learn more in the in-game instructions!
