Lovers in a Dangerous SpacetimevsRaining Blobs
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
Execution · Practiced Mastery
A co-op shoot-em-up where coordinating ship stations and learning enemy patterns determines survival.
Raining Blobs
Execution · Practiced Mastery
A fast falling-block puzzle testing speed placement and chain planning.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime leans Execution (Practiced Mastery); Raining Blobs leans Execution (Practiced Mastery).
Lovers in a Dangerous SpacetimeRaining Blobs
Axis by axis
Execution6 vs 7
Raining Blobs leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
Rotating ship stations and aiming cannons requires fast, precise control
Raining Blobs
Fast block placement under accelerating speed decides runs
Reads1 vs 1
Same score on reads - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
No adaptive opponent - enemies follow scripted wave patterns
Raining Blobs
Optional versus but mostly solo, little prediction
Variance4 vs 4
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
Enemy waves and power-up drops introduce meaningful randomness
Raining Blobs
Falling blob colors are random but quickly mappable
Optimization5 vs 5
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
Optimal station rotation and shield positioning are learnable strategies
Raining Blobs
Chaining and clearing patterns has known optimal play
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
