a cool idea to make this mode harder / not playable forever would be where pieces are always locked to the right wall and cannot be moved side to side and thus the only way they move left is via the sliding mechanic
Had to stop to rest my hands but this one was a lot of fun. Echoing the sentiment that it's basically just regular tetris if you are very good at keeping your stack clean. That being said this lets you do tucks with hard drop and therefore it is automatically badass and rad. Might do some 100 line speedruns for funsies.
112 lines best score i was able to get till now, not sure if i'll try improving it if beaten since this version is so damn buggy you can literally die from using hold (like actually happened here)
I just uploaded a new version with a fix for the double hard drop glitch, and the one where the pieces end up below the board. not sure what you mean about losing after a hold, do you have a video?
quite buggy. pieces can land on each other (which is weird but i dont really mind it), the weirder thing is that line clears don't at all work as they should. in this game, a line didn't clear at all and there somehow ended up being a mino below the board.
this version was a BIG piece… I knew there would be bugs like this (it’s probably not the only one!). honestly this would take a lot of time to fix. can you try just… not doing that? :D
Love seeing this every week, just sad that none of the old versions have been reuploaded. Also, the whole Superhot theme is really clever, never would've thought of that.
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 :/

Duuude 1543, and because of a bug that reseted the game. At least I was recording so I was able to screenshot the video
congrats on the high score! do you know how to reproduce the bug?
No idea, I paused the game, started it again and after 3 minutes, while switching blocks it just reset. Hope that information is enough.
I got a Nice score
also earlier during that run i did a cool rainbow thingy
nice
can u please release the old versions i miss the repeating one :,(
maybe

Also those .2 lines hehe
congrats! share your times if you ever attempt some speedruns :D
(and nice .2 lines >.>)
definitely a nice concept, though to the skilled player this is basically just regular tetris
234 lines to start off this week
agreed, I’ll try to find a way to spice things up if I ever reupload this one…
btw, the gif below the game still shows the one from last week :P
thanks for the heads up ;)
I forgot to press save… it’s been 3 days but at least the gif is the right one now :D
is there a way to play older versions of this game?
there isn’t, but if you wait for a few more days you’ll get to play the next version!
went ahead and got a better score c:
and you lost to the hold glitch again… I’m really sorry but I can’t figure out what causes it or how to reproduce it u.u

here you go
I have not seen that before… does it always happen at high speed like this?
I have uploaded a possible fix, but I’m still unable to reproduce this bug. I hope this version works
i haven't seen it happen at low speed no, will check if it still happens now.
edit: definitely still happens, not sure what's causing it though or how it would be possible to fix..
new version is very interesting, I got 94

well done and thanks for the feedback!
nice new version, but already found a bug with two pieces overlapping eachother on spawn
this version was a BIG piece… I knew there would be bugs like this (it’s probably not the only one!). honestly this would take a lot of time to fix. can you try just… not doing that? :D
i could try but i have a feeling it's gonna be happening more often .w.
i tried but i broke things again, arguably worse this time
I fixed your first bug and I’m going to bed. Sorry about the rest, I’m afraid this version is just going to be buggier than usual
i think this will be more than enough to secure the highscore for this version

Love seeing this every week, just sad that none of the old versions have been reuploaded. Also, the whole Superhot theme is really clever, never would've thought of that.
i noticed something that's completely unacceptable!
clearing a single line with a spin doesn't call out the single, only says the spin
oh no! whoever did this should be fired. and also they should fix it in next week’s version.
doesn't that kinda contradict itself? :P
So does the game change every week? Does that mean previous iterations are not available anymore?
That is correct!
That's beautiful and I love it
better kick things off with a better scoring reference than 5 :P
136 lines
Nice! How do you like this version?
honestly it doesn't feel too different from regular tetris, except some pieces seem to lock a lot faster than others
They lock if you move them!
ah i see, it makes sense now c:
also i upped my score to 360
After about 3 hours of grinding, I finally got a new score. The lava actually helped keep the bocks down.
Yeah, keeping the stack low isn’t as challenging as keeping a stack at all in this game mode…
Also, did you really manage to get this high without ever holding a piece?
Holding pieces makes me panic with key presses. That's why I don't do it lol.
I guess this week getting the correct piece is not as important as dropping it fast enough
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
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
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!
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?

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

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

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.
