hi everyone! you might notice that “game of life” tetrible is a bit buggy. i’m going to sleep for now, and i’ll see what i can do tomorrow. good night and enjoy!
just tried this version and definitely noticed that, there seem to be quite a few cases where cells don't get cleared out properly, making it quite difficult to see what's solid and what isn't certainly do like the idea of this though, so would be nice if that problem got fixed c:
i think they're talking about when you take a L/I/J piece to max height, hold it, then take it out of hold. pretty sure it doesn't have to do with the previous reason
maybe that was just an issue with pressing hold and hard drop at the same time and it made the game think the placed piece was above the board? idk i can't remember if i pressed hold but i pressed right arrow key iirc
Too bad I can't turn off the fog. Fog of war as a separate mode was a good idea, but what's the point of these cool figures if I can't see them most of the time
i got an idea for you, and while it's not exactly new, it could be fun to see how you handle it. basically tetris on a hexagonal board instead of a square one
here's an example of how such a board could work:
(also you typo'd my score on the no touch 2 version)
this gamemode was fun, it had a bit more of a puzzle aspect than tetris. also, it reminded me a bit of puyo puyo. anyways, starting it off with 112 lines.
also, i have an idea for a later version: stripes tetrible. you can clear lines in alternating sections (e.g. #_#_#_#_#_ would clear 1/2 a line). this would bring down everything in those columns, so the max amount of lines you can clear at a time is 2 lines (and you can do so with any piece!) i think this will make for some pretty fun gameplay.
ok anyways, bye. i will work on improving my score. :)
the only frustration this version give me is the small pieces locks time when you soft drop, it’s instant lock if you accidentally hold soft drop too long. other than that, gg
bruh this timeout tho, its good to have but i would have really loved to play this one game of Tetris all through the day as i keep pausing to actually do work
the minecraft one? it was a bit complicated, i didn’t want to create a different effect for every piece (since i try to keep concepts easy to explain in a tweet). but i liked the idea, and it partly inspired the fragile tetrible version
ah i see. i think you didn't fully understand what i said there then, the idea was to just have that water effect, but have it placed randomly on one piece out of every set of 7. still nice that the fragile version came out of it though c:

lol
i was gonna get 145 lines, but i accidentally went over by one so i decided to just keep playinglast minute competition, exciting!
I made it up to 134 which is still a personal victory but couldn't crack these last two scores! Well played :D
aaaaand welcome to the leaderboards @silverrush!
yay! thx
last day score for me this time c:
144 lines
no whhy
nice!
finally managed to get a record!
the speed at the end was killing me though :/
well played!
this is frickin addicting
niice!
The hold key ending the game is killing me (I'm sorry I know a lot of people gripe about it) but this is as far as I've been able to get so far!
no but you’re right, i should figure out a way to fix this bug!! good job on the high score btw :)
i’m still having trouble catching this bug, so if you ever find a way to repro it consistently let me know, that would help huuugely.
right now for every fix i try i need to play the game for 5-10 minutes and hope the bug happens… not very convenient haha
i think they're talking about when you take a L/I/J piece to max height, hold it, then take it out of hold. pretty sure it doesn't have to do with the previous reason
thanks, i’ll see if i can figure something out from that
one score from me
110 lines
it would be nice if we could see some new versions again soon, the reruns are getting kinda boring if i'm being honest
don’t get used to it :p
Going to enjoy my day or so of glory before this inevitably gets shattered >:)
i found a kinda weird strategy...
improvement
good job! i’m updating the high scores
Ummmmmmmm.... that wasnt supposed to happen
wow narrow again
i'll throw a score at this one c:
780 lines
also random game over?
i pressed the hold key and then i lost?
maybe that was just an issue with pressing hold and hard drop at the same time and it made the game think the placed piece was above the board? idk i can't remember if i pressed hold but i pressed right arrow key iirc
also i don't remember pressing hard drop
i just think this is a very rare occurrence
yeah, i’m aware there is a bug that makes you lose when you hold but i haven’t been able to repro it… i’m doing my best to find it haha
topped out at 457
i know you guys are crazy good and this score probably won't hold, but it's a personal best for me by far!
Is 350 good? probly not lol
still better than me!
starting the week off at 720 lines
well i won't have to try then, i know i can't beat that
i love how you imply this is just a starting point. well done!
a few bugs i want to point out:
1. there is no hold slot
- if you hold, you can't see anything in the hold slot
2. texture glitch
- if you try to rotate but can't due to srs, the textures will get mixed up for the piece
ok anyways, good job on this one! my high score is 27 lines.
thanks for the feedback, i’ll try to fix that quickly!
alright, it should work now. enjoy the game!
Too bad I can't turn off the fog. Fog of war as a separate mode was a good idea, but what's the point of these cool figures if I can't see them most of the time

thanks for the heads up!
so hard...
140
went ahead and set a score for this week
394 lines

bruh this timeout tho, its good to have but i would have really loved to play this one game of Tetris all through the day as i keep pausing to actually do work
if you press M you can switch game modes, including endless (without a timer) and zero grav
combos are still broken on this version, it's not going above 1 at all
also i went ahead and set a good score on this version
1071 lines
nice!
I can't get above a 300 score with the timer, how in the world do you do it?
1: use only the top 8 lines
2: be fast
3: don't fuck up
Didn't know there was a timeout mechanic, next time I'll have to put in more risky moves
nice work! you’ll have to earn your name then ;)
nice score! updating now
saw i had to up my game, so..
239 lines
nice!
Pretty sure I'm not even at my peak for double tetris, but I'm still pretty pleased with this :)
random deaths still happen on this version
68 lines before it happened on hold
ughhhhh i swear i’ll get this bug one day
i think i fixed the one where you died after scoring a line tho. have you seen this one?
i don't think i have yet this time, will let you know if that pops up
these bugs really are a pain because it takes like 5 minutes of regular play for them to happen at random.
it’s the perfect combination of too short to enjoy the game and too long to repro it easily
welp this version couldn't be played..
yeah it’s a bit buggy i know… i’ll try to fix it quickly
alright, give it another try it should be fixed now!
can I play old versions?
there’s only one version available each week, but i’m reuploading the old versions
new week, new version, new score
starting off strong with 539
nice! i’d love to see more gameplay videos if you’re planning on recording some again… the ones you made on the last repeat tetrible were really good!
i hate you, this is terrible, you're terrible, and the rage i feel is indescribable. very good work
i didn't realize i could still move them side to side. i hate you less.
this time a good score at a more reasonable time :P
139 lines
managed to still beat the previous version's score :D
402 lines for fragile tetrible
you’re late nick
that said i appreciate you leaving time for everyone to get high scores before submitting yours haha
better late than never right? i also still have a video for the tetrible before that one which i still have to process, i can be slow sometimes ^^;
also, was kinda curious if you had seen the new idea i had thrown at you like 2 weeks ago, since you never actually responded to said idea
the minecraft one? it was a bit complicated, i didn’t want to create a different effect for every piece (since i try to keep concepts easy to explain in a tweet). but i liked the idea, and it partly inspired the fragile tetrible version
ah i see. i think you didn't fully understand what i said there then, the idea was to just have that water effect, but have it placed randomly on one piece out of every set of 7. still nice that the fragile version came out of it though c:
right, i see. yeah, i didn’t want to have all the effects combined in a single version but there might be something to do with the water.
i’m kind of on a break right now, so i’ll only upload reruns for a while. but i’ll keep it in mind.
I'm new around here but last and this week's have been so so so fun! gtg to work now but I'll be back >:)
Aiming is kinda wonky, especially with the long blocks, but I did it
nice one! yeah this one involved some trig and i got short on time… consider it a prototype that i’ll improve on when i rerun it :)
about something... idk what am i doing
