Nice job! My anxiety of jump scares made me harder to play :) My only complaint is the distance of the monitor. I would like to have it placed nearer.
Thank you for playing! Good point with the monitor, but with it being far you have to pay more attention, but you may be right. I appreciate the feedback, thanks! :D
Love it! Such a clever concept. Tetris already has its own inherent anxiety and the FNAF-like tension pairs perfectly with it. Really well done
Thank you so much :) And thank you for playing! :D
Was not expecting that.
Very cool, I love tetris. I didnt notice too much spooky happenings but that was mostly because I was buried in tetris. Great work!
Thank you for playing! :D
Straying from my normal review format specifically for this one.
Things I have learned while playing this game:
On a serious note though, this a great concept and was executed very concisely. As if the stress of playing Tetris wasn't enough I have to worry about some dude trying to break into my house AND make my Tetris music slowed and reverbed.
The sound effects and atmosphere were great! (you were not kidding about the loud sounds lol)
The lighting was great.
I do agree with some of the other comments that if you were to continue this idea it would be cool to have some more interactions outside of the game. Could definitely turn into something like Fears to Fathom: Home Alone O.O
Overall, an extremely solid submission.
Thanks so much for your feedback and thank you for playing! I really appreciate it! :)
Really great concept! The idea of playing a game within a game, while something spooky is happening around you, reminds me a lot of Inscryption. It would be cool if you could add more interactions to do in the room outside of the game. Overall, great work!
Thanks for playing! If you get far enough, there will be just that! I thought that maybe with that added it may be a bit too overcomplicated to add more, but I will definitely look into creating a more atmospheric environment, thank you! :D
Love the concept and the graphics. Lighting is excellent
I really appreciate it, thank you! :)
BRO! LEAVE ME ALONE I'M JUST TRYING TO PLAY SOOME TETRIS! ; ;
it really messed with me, lol. Love it, a must play.
Thank you for playing!! :D
Great game! XD
Thanks :D
I got fucking pranked. The tetris demon with their smily smile.
Definitely liked this, it was good horror trying to keep both tetris and whatever was lurking in the room in check. Reminds me of fnaf in the sense that there is always something to check on.
Some feedback (going heavy into opinion territory here):
I am not a massive fan of just snatching tetris completely. It works in this case, it's a gamejam game. But I'd really have liked to see a twist on the tetris concept, so there is a bit of innovation there as well.
Overall though, I enjoyed playing the game, and it was genuinly making my pulse go up to keep putting a few pieces down even though I just heard a noise. Great work!
Thanks for the feedback and I will definitely keep it in mind. Maybe in the future I will implement some sort of core mechanic changes to the game of Tetris itself! Thank you for playing :)
Really amazing concept. Definitely messes with you.
Thank you for playing! :)
I don't know who's knocking on the door right after I get a Tetris, but I am busy dude :). I don't know if someone was breaking in or what's going on, I got a square and need to find somewhere to put it. made it to level 3 with 21 lines.
Have you considered going pro in Tetris? Thank you for playing!
The random noises in the background, the music stopping all of a sudden, the lights going out, and something scary popping up outside of my window made me nervous as heck while I was playing the game.
Thank you for playing, I appreciate the kind words! :D
Perfect job.
Thank you so much! :D
The audio cutting out was a great tension builder. I feel like the scares were a bit spaced out and I would have liked just a bit more brightness so I can see behind me, even before the lights cut I couldn't see much which took me out of the horror. Overall a really fun concept!
That is some great feedback, thank you so much, I will make sure to brighten it up a bit. Thanks for playing! :D
i love Tetris, but adding a horror element to it sealed the deal. Five stars. but for real my only qualm is that fullscreening was weird, oh and as others may have mentioned, a little bit of sound design will go a long way. Even just some shuffling coming from behind you would make it so much creepier. Nice work!
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it! I will try to get a bit more into the sound design aspects of it, I appreciate the tips, thanks for playing! :)
P.S. If you get a bit further into the game, there will be shuffling behind you, if you catch my drift...
Love the audio cut out on the tetris, and the shader gives it a retro feel.
The joystick was a super nice touch as well.
Overall a pretty good submission!
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for playing, I am glad you enjoyed it! :)
Some screen static or eerie noises behind me would've helped make it feel more spooky and less like just playing Tetris in a poorly lit room, and the Tetris music stopped after a couple minutes of playing which left it just silent for the rest of the time if this is intentional then definitely think the eerie ambient sounds in the background would help fill the silence. Do like the aesthetic of the scene though.
The music stopping is intentional, as the game gets scarier as you get more points. In the top right there should be a text that tells you which ending you just received. Thanks for pointing that out, I will make it bigger! Thank you for the feedback!! :)
Anything didn't happen for quite a long time, If there's something supposed to happen then little cues or sounds would be great to keep the player on the edge. Nice art by the way.
Thanks for the feedback! I will try to add some things to the description to help with telling how it all works, since I have it all set up so that it gets scarier as you score more points! :D
I only saw the Tetris game. Nothing else happened when I turned around. I did score a lot of Tetrises! Cool concept!
Thanks so much for the feedback! :D I have it set up so that it gets scarier based on points earned, I will add that to the description of the game.
