yeaah i know, i’ve had personal stuff coming up these past few weeks, and i’m working on other projects atm. but i really want to make more versions eventually!
it might have something to do with pressing space then pressing hold on the next frame to trick the game into thinking the piece placed was at the top of the board, but probably not
If you're asking how it's my fav, I honestly don't know. If you're asking how to score high, I would say mash drop until you're at the top 5 or so lines and then it's a lot easier to aim/force pieces into the corner to score lines more quickly. While you doing the initial mash, it's nice to make sure you have pieces stuck against the side so you don't have to drop stuff down into a void before you can score lines.
use the first 7 columns for large blocks and last 3 for mini blocks. occassionally you'll need to put large blocks in the 3-wide. this worked pretty well for me until my controls stopped working for a sec. i had fun with this one!
the random apple generation does not use a mixed bag system for the columns any more, because i realized you can just drop only i pieces for free t*tris/all clears. however each column still has an equal chance of being chosen.
uploaded an update to snaketrible with the following fixes :
the random generation of “apples” has been improved. they will now spawn equally on each column with a mixed bag system, including in the middle.
locking a piece with any block above the board will now trigger a game over (for more clarity on how to lose in this specific game mode)
losing your piece ten times in a row, by colliding with another one or the side of the board, will now trigger a game over (in order to solve soft locks)
yeah i know there are tons of glitches in this one. i’m not sure how to solve this, maybe just trigger a game over if you lose your piece n times in a row
Rather than a game over, maybe move the food if you lose your piece a bunch of times. It's not a perfect fix, but it keeps you from being softlocked at least.
only if there is a valid spot for food onscreen! there are too many cases i can’t really predict right now so i think i’ll keep it to 10 deaths = defeat.
i feel like the game never spawns an "apple" in the middle columns unless it absolutely has to. this gets annoying at times. time to switch up my strategy...
nice trick! the apple generation is random but you’re like the tenth person to say it never spawns in the middle which is really starting to make me doubt myself about this! i’ll double check my code just to make sure
update : i was wrong. i told the apple to spawn on the board above any existing piece, but i included the current piece in “any existing piece” by mistake… meaning the apple would never spawn under the current piece, i.e in the middle. but hey, it’s fixed now!

may not seem like much but the mechanic gets you a lot
yeah i know right! it’s the worst
may as well drop a score for this one before it's gone too
300 lines
nice !
hold bug at 68, not impressive so i won't send a pic
idk a good start
late score, but here is one:
261 lines
nice score! is it for double tetrible?
yeah, that's why it's a late score :P
also, would be nice to actually see some new versions again, that's what made it fun to actually check back here every week
yeaah i know, i’ve had personal stuff coming up these past few weeks, and i’m working on other projects atm. but i really want to make more versions eventually!
nice
hold bug :(
i somehow replicated it?
and again?
it might have something to do with pressing space then pressing hold on the next frame to trick the game into thinking the piece placed was at the top of the board, but probably not
yehaw
pinball is still my fav :D
but how

i'll drop a score again this week
594.1 lines
how do you go so ungodly fast! that's more than a line every other second :0
being good at tetris c:
pretty fun getting to experience all the versions i never got a chance to
congrats! i’m happy to see you’re enjoying the reruns :)
this is mid game and my controls stopped working for a hot second, but I found the secret area!
shhhh
A solid score if I do say so myself.
played my very first round to timer so i'm posting it here. solid score imo
played a couple games to timer and my thumb is tired from mashing hard drop
yea this one really be like that
first time seeing the 'game ends in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,' didnt even know that was a feature in this lmao
nice!
panicked a bit at the end but I'm pretty happy with this one
died by hold on this one
127 lines
broke 100!
uh... what
random death, i did not use hold key
this is because if there is a high block and you hold soft drop and then do hard drop, the next piece will place really fast
hi everyone, thanks for your patience! i swear i’ll have the versions rotate automatically someday….
Yo is this still going on?
he must've forgot today
this one is still super laggy :c
but even with that, 174.5
starting it off with 32.5
game lags a lot with large pieces.
use the first 7 columns for large blocks and last 3 for mini blocks. occassionally you'll need to put large blocks in the 3-wide. this worked pretty well for me until my controls stopped working for a sec. i had fun with this one!
yeah i know, i’ll try to fix that at some point but optimization is always tricky
@henriforshort what time zone do you live in, just wonderin
i’m in france, but also: i’m late more often than not
i'll drop an early score this time
76 lines
good game (long tetrible 3)
just a heads up, you forgot to change the gif
thanks nick
yay you finally fixed the combos!
uhhhhh i just uploaded an old version because i forgot we were tuesday. but hey, i’m glad you like it! :D
this one pretty much ended up being "make O pieces" cause I pieces were unreliable
56 lines
i got 40... so close
I really like this one, even if I can't get past this 35

41 lines, I can't stop playing this
If you build a vertical wall, it's possible for the "food" to spawn on the other side, softlocking you forever.
yeah i know there are tons of glitches in this one. i’m not sure how to solve this, maybe just trigger a game over if you lose your piece n times in a row
Rather than a game over, maybe move the food if you lose your piece a bunch of times. It's not a perfect fix, but it keeps you from being softlocked at least.

i feel like the game never spawns an "apple" in the middle columns unless it absolutely has to. this gets annoying at times. time to switch up my strategy...
i might have just been unlucky, but it still seems to be the case, just less so. anyways, heres my pb as of rn
tip: use squares
nice trick! the apple generation is random but you’re like the tenth person to say it never spawns in the middle which is really starting to make me doubt myself about this! i’ll double check my code just to make sure
