On a table is way better. Step 4. get your animated pieces ready. Don’t make too many little parts or else it’s hard to animate them. Keep it relatively simple.

Anyone play Chuzzle on the iPhone? I’m just starting it. It’s a Popcap game, and guess what? I got these goodies from them. They’re Chuzzles which sort of look like Puyo Puyo characters.
