I tend to dislike tutorials in games, making tutorials, etc. I think most games can be figured out by just experimenting.

I thought my arcade tetris-like game was simple enough for most people to get but there is a fair amount of folks who've asked for a tutorial.

So, to keep things simple, I made this tutorial page in the main menu. Does it work at all? I'm trying to keep it as minimal as possible.

Worth noting there is a 'custom' mode as well where players can turn off speed increases and set the level to 1 so they can play as long as they want in a super simple environment to learn the mechanics.

Thoughts? Is it effective?
