As a fan of tetris I must say...

Your version uses the same dropping block idea with the same shapes. Adding new shapes only breaks the original flow of having 4 segments per block.

It is a blatant rip-off with some new ideas, and was fustratingly unrewarding. With tetris, you have the ability to eventually fix your mistakes and fight back. With this game, you are left without a feeling of control.

IMHO, I think you have the talent to produce better than this. It's not an awful game, but it's not going to win any fans really.

Perhaps design a new puzzle from scratch involving your word theme?
