Seems that you just share a folder and some images on it but no c3p file.
Is the object needs to checking surroundings in 4 directions? Test overlapping at offset probably the way to go. Anyway here an example with "Surroundings" treated as solid:

Use image point as overlapping testing in 4 corner. Loop the checking points by using 'for' loop.
It's simple enough to do: dropbox.com/s/9857nngxve9u0mz/bullet_hell_pattern.capx
Here alternative way to sorting bulk numbers without using array:

For pick & store simple data you can use text object to store series of strings. But when come to sorting data out, array. Sort is very easy.

Since what you desired sorting "pure" number, converse the input first (which usually read as string) with int so the array sorting command will recognise the data as numbers.
Ah yes of course let me edit some parts tailored for you.
I had an example: dropbox.com/s/4o6s8lqwk3u2zxa/ambil_angka_box_array.capx
Yes it is really possible to achieve match 3 mechanics without using array. The trade is it rely much on position or overlap checking.
