So i remade my beta tetris beta one had some mess due experimenting, now due expirence i made it less messy and much more cleaner, also improved design. Same as beta version level is equipped with hotseat co-op mode for those to play with friends in your pod.

So here what been improved:

No more stucks - that actually been fixed by mm in patch 1.02... but then i broke due heavly changes in logic preference to see that
Revamped fall system after line explosion - My beta level had time based falling, now it much more accurate and intelligent, knows know any and where line explode and trigger falling to right pieces and right amount of time
Reduced overheat problem - Due cleaner logic it uses less termo, so no more sure overheats. Still they are technically possible if you really fill up screen with blocks and have less holes, but..
Overheat detection - ...in that case game will announce game over automatically. But i didn't have chance to test it because overheat problem been reduced
Speed regulation - which makes game more challenging
Bi-directional rotation - Shudder buttons for those who want have more control
Co-op turn off option - if you don't want to friends get involved
Tetris theme! - Most requested feature is here!
Menu and nicer design - I used same technique as "Fight of the Bumblebee " story level (not sure the name, 4th level of cosmos), and make it fully 2D, also added some fancy stuff. It also have menu on beginning with options.

So i hope you like it and would like some opinions ofcorse! Don't let sink like my LBP1 levels >.<

I liked this a lot! Thanks for making this. I think almost everything is perfect. The deign, the gameplay, the music. Only one thing would be a nice addition; make a grid. Maybe a soft one in the back that's just a bit blurry or so.. dunno, be creative. But it would be nice so you can see where the blocks will end, just like the real Tetris (which this looks really a like!)

Well done! Hope you get a lot of plays, because it's worth it!		2011-02-09 01:01:00

TETRIS!!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Alw5hs0chj0&feature=fvst)

Way cool, everything worked fine.
Multiplayer option is great too.

But I feel you need some increasing difficulty in the standard mode. I aimed to beat the high score at the time (25k?) and then reached 50k, decided to stop trying at 60k, and i'm still going.
Without the increasing difficulty, it becomes simply a matter of endurance.
Oh, and maybe increase the point payout with each difficulty/speed.
EDIT: Oh, I see that's possibly coming in an update, nice.

Amazing stuff though. Thanks for bringing tetris to LBP!
Plus thank skolio for me, I had that tetris music on the whole time I was playing.

Gave up @ 70k. ha.		2011-02-09 09:04:00

Great to see this level published I managed to get a short glimpse on it yesterday, but I will have to play it again this evening. Great piece of work; the controls are quite smooth and everything works fine and feels right. I think this is pretty much the best you can get without using array-based logic with a fix grid. Nicely done!2011-02-09 09:10:00

Yea, problem with full grid is hard to apply rotation in to it, at first i was trying to achieve digital grid movement but end up going back to my old system. Maybe Shiwayari's grid system would do better job (he released it when i as in half way making this level and didn't have a chance to check it). But you know you can find smooth Tetris in gaming same as you can find smooth Snake game.		2011-02-09 09:55:00

Excellent remake of Tetris.

VISUALS:
The game is really colorful with a variety of color blocks and cool layout.

SOUND:
Excellent music choices to choose from and great custom music from the first Tetris game.

GAMEPLAY:
Exactly like Tetris. I think what needs to be fixed is that when the blocks begin to overflow, some brake apart into pieces.

OVERALL:
It's a must play. A yeah vote, a heart, and a positive review.		2011-02-10 04:49:00
