To see EricICX’s skills in NES Tetris, be sure to watch the full video where he snags 6 million points and records the first ever example of glitched colors in NTSC Tetris. Anyone who goes up against him in a head-to-head match is undoubtedly going to need a heck of a lot of luck, and some impressive skills to match. With this, it’ll be interesting to see how competitions like the Classic Tetris World Championships go this year, especially if EricICX competes. And again, not only did EricICX achieve a maxout, he did so 6 times over. While this is getting increasingly more common at events like the Classic Tetris World Championships, it’s still something that’s considerably difficult to accomplish for most Tetris players. For NES Tetris, a maxout is reached once a player hits 999,999 points. It’s also equivalent to 6 maxouts, with maxouts being the game’s score cap. To put in perspective how impressive EricICX’s score is, it’s double his previous world record score of 3 million points earned back in April of this year where he beat the previous world record by 1.4 million points. “This version fixes the level counter to use three digits, and re-adds the glitched colors, as they were fixed in earlier versions of TetrisGYM,” EricICX explains.Īs for whether the game itself counts as breaking the world record given that EricICX specifies in the description that it’s a seed game, the answer provided is yes, it counts. EricICX elaborates on this in the video and video description, noting things like how the numbers didn’t glitch with the colors because the game was played on TetrisGYM v5. Not only did they absolutely demolish their previous world records for NES Tetris, they also captured the first ever example of glitched colors appearing in NTSC Tetris.Įssentially, they’re so good at NES Tetris they were able to “break” the game in a never-before-seen way. As more players discover NES Tetris along with new tricks and methods for approaching the game, world records continue to be broken.Īmong those breaking records is YouTuber EricICX who recently broke their previous score and line world records, hitting a whopping 6 million points in their latest video.
#TETRIS WORLD RECORD UPDATE#
The only reason I bring these points up is in case in a future update you hope to make the game a little truer to the original, but thanks for what you've already provided.The NES Tetris scene has been booming over the years thanks to the likes of competitions like the Classic Tetris World Championships. I mention these differences, but it was honestly a very pleasing experience, and I ended up playing for a while, so I don't think the button scheme is impossible to adapt to. Maybe consider increasing the drop speed a little faster as you increase score. I got to level 20 and the game felt like it had barely sped up at all, and I was able to easily continue scoring lines manageably. In this app you strictly get one point per line cleared which removes the incentivation for scoring more than one line at once. In the original tetris scoring a single line gives you 40 points, a double gives 100, a triple gives 300, and a tetris (clearing 4 lines at once) gives 1200, and all these had a multiplier depending on what level you're on, so you get more points the higher the level. In the end this makes it easier to play because it gives you more options for placing pieces, but it takes longer to score lines. In this app the field is 14 blocks wide by 24 blocks tall, when the original tetris field size is 10 blocks by 20 respectively.
The tetris playfield in this app is the wrong dimensions. I scored 204 points, so let me know if you got any higher, but I topped out really just to end the game, I could have gone longer because the game is paced pretty slowly, but it was my first time playing this version and I really just wanted to log a score.Ī couple of things keep it from being true to the original:
I think I have the unofficial world record for this version. And even though it isn't perfect it was certainly fun for a little bit. Huge praise to the creator of this Garmin app, it was a joy.
