Hello,

I am currently writing a small puzzle game using palib. It is not done yet, but already playable, so that you can get an idea about what it will be like.
There will be stones falling down and you have to eliminate them by selecting three that form a set according to the Set! card game rules.
If you don't know Set! yet, here is a quick interactive tutorial: http://www.setgame.com/images/tutorial/flash_version/set_flash_tutorial.htm

The game is very rough still, more a prototype to check whether the basic idea works. (it does!)

Find the nds rom here: http://code.google.com/p/setris/downloads/list
And the source code here: http://code.google.com/p/setris/source/checkout

Known issues:
The column for new stones is completely random, which is annoying. (The devil always sh**s on the biggest heap)
The difficulty increase with the levels is too weak.
No Arcade feeling yet.
No sound effects.

Each of these issues will be addressed in future versions.

If there are other complains: your feedback is welcome.

Thanks.

I like where you're going with this. It's quite fun as it is.
