Block Ace

Falling Block Shooting Action

Out in space, you are a Block Ace—a fighter who pilots a special spaceship for destroying and moving the Tetris-like blocks that threaten the planet.

As the blocks fall, shoot off parts of them, move them into position, and try to set up neat, full lines of 12 blocks to clear them out.

As the game progresses, enemies will begin to appear attached to their blocks. You can either destroy them or dodge their bullets and use them to clear lines.

Controls are fully customizable. Defaults are:

Keyboard
X: Shoot down, confirm
Z: Shoot up, cancel
V: Self-destruct

Gamepad (Nintendo style)

Y: Shoot up, cancel

macOS Notes

For macOS, see the download page for tips about how to open the game, which will likely require special authorization for your operating system to run.
