mslivo··on Show HN: Sandtrix, formerly known as Setris is coming on Steam
This game was released for free as Setris, got mildly popular and quickly DMCA'd by the Tetris Company. After that I began working on removing the copyright infringing elements and implementing community feedback. I am now finally releasing an extended version on steam while keeping the base game free and updated.

The assets are 13MB sound effects + 400kb png image files, the rest of the file size is due to platform natives and the bundled JRE. I know it's a lot of overhead but its java.

Not as a seperate download, but the .jar is inside the .zip/.tar archive. You can just toss the "jre" directory if you want to use your own JRE.

It's not officially supported as I can't test it myself. It should work in theory but as far as I know it nobody got it to run yet.

Developer here. This game was made in Java+Libgdx so it's coming with a bundled JRE which makes up most of the filesize.
