  I have looked at the capx and it is hard dealing with familiy when you are using DragDrop behaviour too.

  So we need extra condition dealing with this behaviour to make your code works with some modification.

  For some reason family instance variable doesn't work like I expected. But I manage to work around the code:

  snapping_back

  Deck snapping is working now. Hope it helps.

  Demo update: fix diagonal movement >> updated link is always in first post or click here

  Took me quite extra time to solve diagonal movement to get correct. The trouble comes when it come to picking which block need to slide down and fill the empty pad or which direction a block need to slide to. By utilizing negative value (-1) this problem is handle elegantly that acts as a switch & chooser

  

  So by applied this method gives us more dynamic slide movement since there is a cance to pick left side or right side.

  

  This one I called a candy machine

  Maybe some penalties if player hit wrong color block many times. And would be so much better adding up effects for richer experience.

  I don't understand.. You said you need to make the ball move in curve and it will moving fast or slow depend to the touch (swipe) speed.

  My example showcase these mechanic, you just need to make it simpler than mine.

  So what exactly you want the game behave to?

  Instead of waiting for perfect working match-3 puzzle project to finish, would be better just showing slow progress over this things.

  

  I am planning to sell the project file as a template with a level editor too, of course after get rid unwanted bugs!

  It won't be on store any time soon until the demo highly playable and consistent.

  Updated demo will be always here: candycancombo.netlify.app

  Why? it shouldn't affected the BG since you just unlocked one BG.
