Hack description

Tetris - Giant was really just made as a proof of concept. Making sprites this large in this engine was no easy task.

The playfield being so cramped makes the gameplay extremely challenging so a Tetris - Giant - EZ version is also included. It uses the same concept as Tetris - Beginner and ends up being very fun.

This mod is for the more common 1.1 version of Gameboy Tetris.

Two player mode simply cannot handle these sprites and is more or less broken. The piece preview window doesn't like the size of these sprites either... you will have to just remember the pattern on the blocks.

It is recommended that you keep your "pit" on the left side of the screen because when you spin the extremely long "I" piece, it favors the left side.

Pandora's Blocks' mode as an OG Tetris Hacklordelan2024-02-25Version 1.0

This is basically the big brick mode of the homebrew game "Pandora's Blocks" and it does a decent job on that, apart from flipping the "i" on the left border side but since that is mentioned in the description I guess that's about it. :)
