TumbleTris

There is a playable web build on the Ludum Dare Submission page ! 

# Story

It was the day before Halloween,

In a factory you have never seen,

With secrets hidden in barrels deep,

Formulae to raise the dead from sleep,

As corpses crawl, moan and grumble,

Both head and room roll and tumble,

Will you survive them forever more,

Or finally earn your coveted score ?

# About

Hi there ! It's me, JavaSaurus. I am a hobbyist / indie dev and this edition marks my 10th (consecutive) submission to LD. The theme was, per usual, a very enticing topic. But this time ... It really took all of my limited brainpower to come up with something that I find original and fun. And with Halloween just around the corner, a cute and cuddly zombie game seemed like a great decision. So I did it, solo... I have built TumbleTris, a Match 3 game where the zombies try to get to you by climbing the blocks you stack ! 

**But Java? Where does the theme fit in?**

Well ! Unlike in any other match-3 games out there, every 10 seconds the entire board flips. Let gravity do its thing and take out the zombies for scores and bragging rights!

# Gameplay

The game is quite easy in its setup. You control the character at the center of the screen and can move left to right. Drop barrels beneath you, matching (at least) 3 of the same type to create a chain reaction that gives you points. You need to drop at least one barrel before the 10 second timer runs out and the level rotates. If not, it will explode in your face, damaging you.

Meanwhile, a horde of zombies is forming beneath you and they will try their very best to use your stack of barrels to get to you. Once they do, they'll rush you and take one of your lives, so plan your moves carefully...

 You will find that I've added buttons for Mobile support. Obviously, this is not really a nice way to play the game on desktop or in a browser.
