But again, THANK YOU. One of my all time favorite games. I look forward to your next revision.
same here with the button control

I think it would be cool if you could grab the pieces move left and right then throw them down. Maybe even reverse the play field and throw them up and tap on the screen to rotate. Would be awesome if when you made a line the pieces exploded into balls of fire too. When you throw a piece and no lines are made it slams and booms. Little bit of a stress reliever xD

A new twist on a classic.
But this is cool too. I love tetris, thanks!

Hello guys, version 1.4 released.
I read everysingle feedback from the forum and private messages. I was able to fix the down key. It will be faster now but im still working on the "pause" option.

If there is a js guru out there that would like to take a look at the code to add a pause option, please feel free to email me at elchileno(a#t)gmail(%d*ot)com.

I also improved the graphics a litle more, still a lot to be done! Thanks for the great feedback, it makes me very exited when i see all the interest on this ap!


Ps: How/where do I add a donation button :P

ciao`!

Great work, I was at work all day and am impressed to see how much the app has involved over the course of the day. Hopefully the 1.5 link is up soon so I can load it on my phone and give it a try...though when I wake up, the game will most likely be on 1.7 or so..haha

Thanks to the developer!

being able to use both hands makes for faster game play.
I would have switched it. Arrows to Left and rotate to right. DPads and arrow keys are almost always on the left. Action buttons always on right.

I believe that our developer has gone to sleep! It is good to know that he does one thing that is not superhuman.

I do not see the 1.5 link either...

Awesome app. Hope you provide touch/swipe support in the future (like the snake game.)

it's ridiculous that there is no download link in this post. people gripe about the lack of searching, but we're only enabling those people by not posting links to software we create. bla bla bla

Anyone have it?

I want to add that from what I've seen in screen shots this is an excellent idea that has been implemented very well.

A few minor cosmetic changes, and I think you could submit this to the App Cat when they're ready. Charge $0.99 to $3.99 for it, although for now I'd happily donate. I also think you'd make more on donations in the long run, but that is dependent upon the charity and good will of others.

Ala Field of Dreams: If you build it they will come...

Thank you very much for your time, and efforts on this.
