Omg this was so fun. I seriously had a blast the whole time. Sure, sometimes there were death loops when respawning but that was just plain funny. The different squad and sacrifice mechanics were super cool and where the game really shines is with those cut-scenes and some very intense moments! You even threw in a fully-functional Endless Mode! Not bad for a game about Tetrominoes in space!
Thanks again for participating!

Glad you had a good time.  I had considered adding in an invulnerability duration for respawning, but felt like if the player was being spawn-camped, the situation was dire enough to end in just a few respawns anyways.  Assuming you die 3 times in a row and then SOMEHOW manage  to dig yourself out of that hole, I think the player gets that rush of adrenaline and a feeling of accomplishment I was aiming for.

I am glad I went back in and threw together the Endless Mode.  Wish I knew how to get an Online Leaderboard going for it tbh.
