The other player is the hunchback. They need to disrupt the king by moving blocks and attempting to reach the top.

King Controls:

Left/Right Arrow keys to move falling pieces horizontally Up Arrow rotates falling piece Down arrow makes the pieces fall faster Hunchback Controls:

WASD to move Space to pick up and place blocks. Red square indicates the block you will pick up, and green square indicates where the block will be placed

Hey, it is very good entry in my opinion. Graphics and animations are just amazing, music fits, and interesting gameplay idea.
The problem is that it requires 2 players, and it is hard (but still possible :)) to play alone. A simple AI for king (which just randomly drops the blocks around) could be very useful.
BTW, I found your entry on itch.io while searching for web entries. Don't forget to add web link here, on entry page - you have only Windows one. Lot of people doesn't like to download games, so link to web would be useful to get more ratings.
Good luck!

Thank you very much for your feedback. I agree with many of your comments. We definitely ran out of time to implement these features. Thanks also for the tip on the category, I initially added it as a download and forgot to change that since we exported it to html5. Cheers
