Hi Tigsource!
Trigger warning: shameless self-promotion coming up.
After 9 months of hard work, our arena-shooter partygame Nanotris has hit Greenlight.
We'd appreciate if you would take a moment of your time to vote for it, be it 'YES' or 'NO'. 
You can find some gameplay info below, and I'd be happy to answer any and all of your questions.
Feedback is also warmly welcomed.
Cheers,
Afterlife Entertainment
Each player has core. The aim of the game is to destroy the other players' cores and protect your own.
Nanotris' gameflow works in two phases - Building & Destruction. In the building phase each player has a limited time to collect as many cubes as they can. The cubes act as a makeshift armor to protect the ship's core. Cubes snap on to the the core and other cubes like magnets. Players can not shoot each other during this phase. After the building phase is over, the Destruction phase will begin.
Additional cubes can be acquired during the Destruction phase by either detaching them from other players, or by killing Critter Queens.
Nanotris features many different arenas. Each arena has been designed to fulfill a different kind of game experience. Some are more tactical, some hectic, chaotic, small, large, you name it.
During the Destruction phase each player has basic blaster available at all times. Special weapon power-ups spawn periodically on the arena. Whoever collects them first, gets to fire powerful weapons against their enemies. Basic flow of the game during this phase usually goes as follows:
-> Players race towards the power-ups
-> someone gets it
-> everyone else flees for their lives.
The winner of Destruction phase is the last man standing.
Destroying other players is not the only thing you can do. The arenas are riddled with pesky little Critters. If the players take the time to shoot these buggers, they get a power orb in return. Collect 10 of these, and all your weapons become more powerful, and you even get access to better weapons that others won't.
...However, the critter are protected by their mommies. Critter Queens have been the demise of many unwary Nanotris champions.Though, with careful aim and dodging skills these maggots can be brought down. Critter Queen spawn a few additional cubes on the level upon their death. PRO-Tip: If you're running low on cubes, avoid danger and try to re-stock from these.
