I am aware of the current bugs, I’ll fix them another time since I’m busy today.
This was made for fun, don’t expect there to be every feature from the original game and/or Tetris itself. You aren’t meant to have “Bricklayer for Newgrounds v1.5” World Championships over here lolz. Let’s just say, if a feature is not included it’s cause I either couldn’t figure it out or I was too lazy and will probably fix it later if I have time, anyways enjoy this little gaem!

pretty good. just needs a lil bit of "WOW YOU GOT THE TETRIS!!!"
look for the Tetfun 2000 remake coming soon
Great, though not perfect
ya girl ain’t perfect either
While history preserves such project being quite unique and great. It's still a shame due to weird bug or hiccup game tends to spam you same pieces.
But eh, I'll get over to lvl. 10 eventually even with such obstacle. Can't get mad knowing it's an oldschool example of Tetris.
