Does anybody remember rock-falling puzzles?

Our first PC, back in the late 80s, was an Olivetti M20. It didn't have many games: Battle Chess, Crazy Golf, Solitaire, Digger and this weird little falling-rock puzzle game called Felix. This last one seems to have been completely lost to time, so I thought I'd try and recreate the mechanics as best I remember (it was like 35 years ago). The garden theme was added after.

It would be interesting to find out if there's a reason these type of puzzles died a death.

The game is tricky, but I assure you it can be completed. (My PB is 437 steps)

Finally finished my first game. Particle effects were modified from this awesome post https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=53826 and, after adding them, i realised that there's probably a lot i can do to clean up the code so any brutal code review is obviously welcome.

Hi,
This is my first attempt at a game. Its still a work in progress but I thought I'd put it up just to show.
Peace :)

Edit: moved to the right board

Edit: I've pretty much finished this now, I just want to add a win condition/end screen, some basics achievements and maybe some music, if I can figure out the track editor.
Particle effects are based on this brill post https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=53826
