Eventually when the soviets got access to ibm computers and actual colored graphics they completely rewrote the game in dos an other languages so that it could be the game we know today. It was a shell of itself before it was written to work with americas hardware and software. This game is very very old we dont even know exactly how old like this was invented in a time when graphics didnt exist and the computer was operated completely through simple text prompts.

My grandad was stuck in the toilet for an hour every time because he was playing Tetris.

Ah, yes, this hardware I've never seen before, let me just open up TurboC and write and compile a version of the game from scratch in a few minutes that works perfectly with setting up and manipulating the specific addresses required, since graphics libraries weren't a thing back then, and get something on the screen and it just magically looks exactly like the final game with UI and everything else, yes, this is exactly how game dev works

The film is called Tetris. The story is based on a true story of a man trying to get the rights to Tetris from its home country… Soviet Russia

I love this concept of Mario is locked behind its limited levels while tetris is endlessly replayble and everyone wants to try to beat it

I remember when I first got a gameboy pocket in 96 for pokemon red. And later the GBC with Links Awakening.

Like Disney, I imagine that these guys Knew exactly what they had achieved. The smiles and smirks don't just represent childlike wonder, but the gravity of their achievements sinking in.
