You already knew this I'm sure, but at the heart of every Tetris player lies a vandal and anarchist. Thank you Petit Prince, I was tempted to make a similar topic. It's much nicer to have them all together.
nice find! i like the "Each time you clear a line, a Tetris piece goes to hell." and the "I always loved the long ones" panties.
TETRIS BUILDING USELESS?? It 's a very great experience!! The guys who have made that are respectable!!
GZ Presents A Conversation With Alexey Pajitnov from that game designer's conference. wish we could've got some footage of his presentation.
I don't mean to disrespect the guy, but I've read complete transcripts from his past presentations and he didn't really say anything interesting. Actually, thinking back, I think I read the actual powerpoint that was used for the presentation. He presented at least 2 years alongside Scott Kim, and they were available on his website. And still are, apparently: http://www.scottkim.com/thinkinggames/index.html Someone should start a "developer interviews" thread to cover interesting stuff like this.
i found this article about the game design contest. apparently the game designers had to make a game out of a cloth, needle, and thread. of course, alexey's game pwned everybody else's:
It appears that Mr. Pajitnov must have reinvented a game that I remember from the Apple II computer. It was called Bridge-It, and its BASIC source code appeared in Write Your Own Apple Games.
