Dear users of TetroCrate!
So, in order to comply with GooglePlay rules and re-list our app on the US/Japan markets, I have had to make changes to TetroCrate's title, description and content (brick colors).
NB When publishing an app, one has to be aware that a lot of keywords or keyword combinations you may want to use in your app description or search criteria (e.g. Ping-Pong, Tower Defence, Asteroids, etc) are in fact, registered trademarks in some countries. So a formal complaint submitted by any interested party will make you app disappear from the market. Re-listing your app can be a long-winded process.

Meanwhile, please post your feedback, and I'll try to address any issues as soon as possible.
Thank you.
