have noticed a bit of a bug with movement, idk if its new or if its always been there but if I try to hold right all the way to the wall and then tap left to move one away from the wall (or vice versa) sometimes the piece will keep going right after I release left and stick on the wall anyway. tapping left should probably reset the DAS charge or whatever so it doesn't just instantly keep moving right again
WTF is this game? The rotation is not even symmetric and not even up to the SRS standard! Where's the Perfect Clear? Holding at row 20 tops out my game when there's enough space for the piece to spawn! Why can't we adjust our DAS and ARR?
And most importantly.... Why is there infinite movement limit?!
I demand this game to be taken down by TTC RIGHT NOW!!!
Wesleyan Tetris is the worst version of Tetris I am aware of that is bad on purpose. It goes out of its way to pick disadvantageous pieces for you, makes up new pieces, occasionally gives you a piece different than the one the Next Piece box was showing, and insults how you play. It's an example your game should strive towards.
There's Hell Tetris, based off the xkcd strip and having a round floor. I would expect that you've heard of it. All the existing recreations I can find are in Flash, so that could be something to try recreating.
Then there's the launch version of Tetris Ultimate on PS4. That one... That one is not something you want to imitate.
also this new version broke the game slightly, it seems not every input can be clicked to change it anymore (from what i tried it seems to be move right and both rotate buttons)
🙏 Thank you!! Your gameplay is just incredible, I didn’t think of that strategy and only ever scored like 30 lines. Also, I can’t understate how useful that kind of videos is to my process! Pushing the game to its limits like you do allows me to fix bugs I couldn’t find on my own… On this note, I think the rotation system is a bit broken on the I piece :/
after a few failed attempts where i locked out instantly when a piece spawned while touching the stack i managed to get a good run c: 2000 lines and a failed secret grade
a couple suggestions on the controls: there is a bug where occasionally when you press left/right, it moves your piece twice. this can cause to misdrop very easily when you're trying to go fast. I also would suggest raising the speed at which pieces move to the left/right when the button is held, right now it is fairly slow and when the game gets to high speed I have to mash left/right to get the pieces to go fast enough. If that's how you want the game to play at high speed that's fine, just my suggestion. Other than those bugs and stuff, all the different versions of this have been great! They're all creative concepts that lead to an interesting take on [unnamed block game].
Really enjoyed the version with the six-block pieces, but when I start the game, it's the version with big and small pieces. I love both, but is there also possibly a way to make a version where it is the six-block pieces?

overstacked lmao
for a first game?? Impressive, that’s our new high score!
After a lot of grinding, I got a score of 322, really fun game @herniforshort !
nice! Adding it to the high scores
Oh I didn't notice I beat the highscore! Nice!
I think the game should game over at this point, but it kind of doesn't, expected from a tetrible game :D (This doesn't happen at a low score though)
wait, it doesn’t?? damn, I intended it too, sorry!
No problem, it's not like there is a manual restart button
Aaargh - this week's is even more stressful than last week's
i saw a new highscore, i beat it
I like the new level, and got the score of 39! It gets really fast really quick in the lava.
Nice score! Yeah, I wanted this week’s version to be more of a speed and balancing challenge :D
i like the new lava! fun mechanic
have noticed a bit of a bug with movement, idk if its new or if its always been there

Yup, I can see that too. Let me see if I can fix it quickly tonight
Okay, it’s fixed! (I did break everything for a minute, but hopefully no one noticed. Debugging in prod is fun!)
thank you!
i may have pushed the highscore a bit too far for most people to beat already ^^;
dammit nick, at least give people a minute or two lmao
i mean they had like half an hour? :P
do i make it worse if i say this was my very first (and so far only) game?well, it’s definitely too far for me already, I only scored 50 or something. But at least I had the high score for a hot minute :D
impressive gameplay as usual though. Well done!
thanks ^^
on the late side but i managed to top the highscore again c:
1200 lines
Any chance of making past versions of this game playable?
Not at the moment, but you can still play future versions!

LOL nice game btw.
Oh no, the Gamers have found my game. Time to run!
the gamers have been around since the first week already :P
This game existing is a sin. See you next week! <
Introduced this game to my significant others. We all hate it. I also can't stop playing it. Curse you, game designer.
I’m glad I could make your day a little bit more terrible :D
Traumatic. Nicely done
Terrible idea, i enjoyed it.
I hate this. Well done
67 lines, phew
Hi. Hope you're doing well.
What is wrong with you? This is the second or third worst version of Tetris I am aware of.
Have a nice day.
Hello, I’m good, how abt you?
I will take this as a compliment. If you know any worse t*trises, kindly send them my way.
Thank you for playing.
I'm doing well too, thanks!

I see you’re a connoisseur… tbh Hell T*tris was my inspiration to start this project, but this version with input lag… definitely worth looking into ✍
Happy to help!
Oh God, what have I done?!?
when paused, it does not actually stop the game. it only removes time based things like gravity and DAS. you can still move and place your pieces.
Well, tuesday’s over for me so you get to enjoy that for a whole week :p
nice new version, definitely repeatable c:
starting off with 450 lines and a funny
also this new version broke the game slightly, it seems not every input can be clicked to change it anymore (from what i tried it seems to be move right and both rotate buttons)
The controls are fixed :D
jeez 450… If you record a video plz upload it, I need to up my game!!
here you go, upped my score to 1050 while i was at it
🙏 Thank you!! Your gameplay is just incredible, I didn’t think of that strategy and only ever scored like 30 lines. Also, I can’t understate how useful that kind of videos is to my process! Pushing the game to its limits like you do allows me to fix bugs I couldn’t find on my own… On this note, I think the rotation system is a bit broken on the I piece :/
new version i am unable to change the controls of move left, rotate right, rotate left
decided to have some fun with this version, and ended up doing this c:
i got a secret grade, with 69 lines!
this was a bit more of an interesting challenge with this unique board shape.
secret grade get!
(the top line on the left side was actually filled but one of the higher line clears cleared it again)
pic
after a few failed attempts where i locked out instantly when a piece spawned while touching the stack i managed to get a good run c:
2000 lines and a failed secret grade
Did i really make my game that easy?? 😭
you can basically ignore everything but the top 8 lines on the right side, so yeah it's easy to keep on going
it's still a fun twist though ^^
My fingers started cramping up but i think this is a pretty good score Lines 1396
Made a considerable higher score 306!!
My first highscore!
and just like that i beat it 67 lines!!
i did an improvement
149 lines
a couple suggestions on the controls:
there is a bug where occasionally when you press left/right, it moves your piece twice. this can cause to misdrop very easily when you're trying to go fast.

hey thanks for the feedback! I’ll try to tweak the controls a bit in the next version
new version, new score, starting off very strong with 113 lines
so, i was aiming to end up with 69 points, since i had gotten 68 earlier in the week... then this happened.
94 lines
nice
managed to up my score one last time, and this time i recorded it!
wat
c:
i'll start off strong on this one with a 37 c:
pic
also while it's great to be able to rebind keys now, i noticed they reset when restarting. not sure if intended or not but figured i'd point it out.
I did my best, but I only work on this project for a few hours a week and rebinding controls is hard! next week I’ll take care of that tho :)
just trying to help this "terrible" game be a bit better, for only a few hours a week this definitely works well c:
also improved my score to 57
pic
Nice! Did you use the infamous Board Overfill Exploit?
mostly i just stack very cleanly, but it has helped me out a few times once i noticed that happening myself
I got 9 lines on Vertical Tetrible!

this is going to immediately get broken but I might as well
thanks! i hate it!
Really enjoyed the version with the six-block pieces, but when I start the game, it's the version with big and small pieces. I love both, but is there also possibly a way to make a version where it is the six-block pieces?
Hello, for now I will change the game every tuesday, but maybe I’ll reupload some of the versions in a way or an other in the future
37.5 lines!
pic here cause it won't let me put it in directly for some reason
PS: being able to rebind keys would be great, current control scheme is annoying..
Nice score! I made this project in just a few days, but control rebind will definitely be there in a future version
managed to improve my score to 58.5 :D
pic here
nice, i’ll update the scoreboard
was able to improve once more to 68.5 ^^
pic
Quite possibly the worst Tetris clone I've ever had the (dis)pleasure of failing at. 10/10, would reccomend.
Kirby703 played this! Janky as hell but fun
Wow! That’s really impressive, updating the scoreboard now :D
