Thanks for the answers! I just want to point out that I don't think a reminder to use powers is enough. Right now you can lose on the next piece after using a power since it resolves it before you get the chance, which feels unfair. I think you should have the option to use a power as a last option always. It's technically one of your available moves, so it shouldn't matter that the piece you are on doesn't fit, in my opinion.

I think your opinion makes a lot of sense, although I believe the alternative I have in the game now also makes sense. It's all a matter of perspective.

Right now, I think that the way the game over is forced even with pending power-ups is a way to push the player to organize themselves better and compete with a more strategic approach.

In other words, the player has to decide between the dilemma of using the power-ups before feeling cornered or using them when they're in dire straits.

I play by using them a step before feeling cornered, and that way I avoid reaching game over with pending abilities. Either way, it's an interesting debate, and I really appreciate your point of view.

I can buy that argument, basically what you are saying is that the intention is that you need to keep yourself "two bad pieces" ahead all the time. It caters to a more hardcore audience, which is totally fine :)

Thanks for the discussion, I think you have a very good and open mindset. Good luck!
