Our popular EDM themed Falling Tiles is finally back with a MASSIVE overhaul that includes:

Renovated interiors and arena
Polished Event System
New gamemode features
New music

In December of 2012, Whirlwind and I launched the first edition of the techno themed Falling Tiles. The server was an immediate success, consistently averaging 40+ players every night we hosted. Eventually the server died down and we expanded our interests to other projects. Two years later we have decided to bring it back for another run with a completely redone events system and new interiors.

The concept of the game itself is fairly simple. A color is called and you must get to a matching colored plate as quickly as possible before the other colors fall down. There are special features implemented into the game to make it more exciting such as rocket dodging, projectile sweeps, vehicles and even a deathmatch.

News
4/3/15: The current state of the server is a work in progress. The build and events are both around 90% complete. The server should be up and running by the end of the month.
4/19/15: The gamemode is fully functional after some testing and bug fixes and the build is 100% complete. Current to do list: loop music into the game, host another testing session, possible hat shop??? A poll has also been added regarding the hat shop idea.
4/25/15: The music has been looped and we added a hat shop with over 50 hats in it. Hats can be bought with the points you earn by playing Falling Tiles or by completing certain quests to earn special hats. The server should be open public around the middle of May.
5/10/15: The first night was a huge success! We reached 46 players at one point.
5/23/15: Updated from version 12.0 to 12.1
8/21/15: Honno and Tetrahedron have been selected for the administration trial run.
