We did it folks. We did it.

Indie developer Swing Swing Submarine (makers of Tetris/Mario mashup Tuper Tario Tros) recently unveiled the first footage of their upcoming Minecraft, Tetris, Boulder Dash concoction labeled Blocks That Matter.

You play as a driller robot who can break blocks apart, pick them up, and reuse them. If you complete a line of blocks, the line gets destroyed a la Tetris.

Our intention is exactly the same than the one we had when we created Tuper Tario Tros. We want to create a unique game experience mixing games elements and mechanics.

The mash-up concept is a popular genre and that’s something we really like because it allows players to see how games that seem different at first can share the same DNA.

- Guillaume Martin and William David, founders of Swing Swing Submarine.

Blocks That Matter will be coming to Xbox LIVE Indie Games in April, followed by a PC/Mac/Linux release shortly thereafter. Expect pricing to be less than $5.

This week Mix, Cruz, and Scares talk thalidomide heroes, Dawn of War 2: Retribution, and what tickled their fancy at PAX East. And remember: if Cruz asks you if you’ve heard of a game, always say “Yes.”
