Sumez | 2,936 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) Old scores: Spoiler 362,800 I lost my (second to) last life on stopping after a respawn to wait for the lower left counter to tell me how many lives I had left, during which the frogs that spawn right at the start of this stage killed me right away >_> Probably wouldn't have made a big difference anyway, this stage is a real bitch, and probably the biggest obstacle for me.

The late game makes it so that any death sets you way back. The game wouldn't nearly be as hard otherwise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumez | 2,936 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Got to the final stage with a bunch of lives to spare, so knocked up the score before getting the clear. I feel like I can squeeze one more digit out of this, but I'm gonna leave this for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NESfiend | 1,515 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I am wanting to keep playing tetris. Feel like I got ripped off hardly being able to play last week with such a great game in the contest. And @mbd39 had me watching a tetris champ make it look easy during some downtime at work today. Ill definitely get back to it here and there. Just scratching the surface, but this game seems decent. The rom I got didn't work. Luckily I have the cart. Pretty sure I bought it in error after reading a good review of kickle cubicle Edited August 4, 2020 by NESfiend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the kind of game that can be learned in a week. Joseph Saelee might be the best player in the world right now and he's only in his teens.

Kids/teens' minds are still easy to change, to learn, and to memorize. Being "only in his teens" is a significant advantage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played a few more games and Im still having trouble breaking 100k. And whatever this dudes hand is doing to that controller was never going to happen.

They mash the directions really fast fast (I think over 11 times per second) to get pieces over quicker. Getting pieces over quicker means being able stack higher at the faster speeds which is a huge advantage. The young tappers influenced by Joseph are starting to dominate Tetris.
