i want this videogame so bad

I’m getting much better at it but still awful. My wife can manage okay until about speed 12 and I have no idea how she does it.


This game can’t come out soon enough. It is so much fun trying to match the quick drops and rotations to the beat

Once you get above 9 you basically need to know where you want the block before it starts dropping. That's when you really have to start watching your queue.

Luckily, they made it so you can keep rotating blocks on the ground to compensate. I could never get past like 150-some lines on the NES because blocks start dropping faster than the controller can respond.

I've only played without VR and it's great. FAU do you know the scoring tricks like T-spins and stuff? Sega put out some great tutorial vids when Puyo Puyo Tetris came out and I'm pretty sure the mechanics are close enough in this to be applicable. You get big scoring bonuses from it

I remember the one time I ever saw NFL on Twitch the chat was the most insane combination of terminally online twitch chat user freaks and people who like to watch sports online. When there's a first down there's like walls of Pog Champs and also people typing with proper capitalization and punctuation about how bad the ref's are lmfao. It's awesome

This is great. I find the massive shifts in speed in some of the levels creates a ton of tension then sense of accomplishment when it slows down and you are doing fine.

It's wild how much the variable speed through the level (instead of just constantly ramping up) changes the feel of Tetris so much. It's great to just barely survive a high-speed part and then have a slow section of the song to catch your breath and clean up your board.
