But I think Vempire also uses this mechanic (twisting gems, instead of swapping places).</p> <p>Sigh, I wish someone would make a regular Match 3 game for the PSP (be it mini or whatever). I think there's only 2, 7 Wonders and Puzzle Quest, and I'm sick of both of them. </p> <p>That's part of the trouble with minis, many developers are trying to be too original, when they should copy popular stuff that for some reason doesn't exist much on the PSP. </p> http://www.pspminis.com/forums/topic/melodybloxx-upcoming-mini#post-552 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 08:12:27 +0000 JeremyR 552@http://www.pspminis.com/forums/ <p>Good find. </p> <p>From the screen shots, looks like Bejeweled Twist. Basically a match 3 game with instead of switch gems, you rotate a block of four. Dunno where the music part comes in.</p> <p>OTOH, considering that Breakquest, their other mini, has never made it to NA, even though it was a launch title, I don't have hope for this one... </p> http://www.pspminis.com/forums/topic/melodybloxx-upcoming-mini#post-551 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 03:51:30 +0000 Carson 551@http://www.pspminis.com/forums/ <p>i stumbled upon this while looking at a list of igf mobile games nominated for awards, and honorable mentions<br /> links:<br /> <a href="http://www.igfmobile.com/php-bin/entry2010.php?id=624">igf page</a><br /> <a href="http://beatshapers.com/melodybloxx">game website</a><br /> i dont think i saw a post about it,<br /> given that its the first (of hopefully many) minis to be submitted to the independent games festival, i think it should be given some attention.<br /> all i really know about it is its a "music-puzzle" game, id like to hear about how that works exactly.<br /> oh, and i also know Beatshapers also published Breakquest, according to their site. </p>
