10k Arcade · Match-3 puzzle
GemStrike
A Bejeweled-style match-3 built in Defold with Alb_pixel jewel sprites. Swap adjacent gems on an 8×8 grid to line up three or more — matched gems shatter, gravity pulls the rest down, and cascades stack multipliers until you hit the level score target or run out of moves.
Swap · match · cascade
Core loop: select gem → swap with adjacent → check matches → remove → gems fall → fill from top → repeat until no matches or moves exhausted. Swaps only register when they create a valid match.
Rules: six gem types (Diamond, Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire, Topaz, Amethyst), 30 moves per level, score targets 1,000 / 2,500 / 5,000 pts across three levels. Four-in-a-row = 2× bonus, five-in-a-row = 3×, cascade chains multiply further.
Engine: Defold — HTML5 export for browser play plus a downloadable Windows build.
Assets: Alb_pixel Jewels pack
