TIL Tetris, developed in Soviet Russia in 1985, is wholly owned today by The Tetris Company, a US holding co created by the original Russian developer after the end of the Soviet Union

I thought for sure it'd be an open source game by now, but apparently TTC is super litigious 🤣

i was just happy to clear even one level back when i was a kid on playing on the macintosh 🤣

can't wait to see the first port of tetris here before TTC sends a cease & desist!

Have you ever watched Tertris world championship? It's dominated by 14 year olds now, and the last 4 years is famous by switching from one playing technique to another (both were invented in the last 5 years), in attempts to overcome the so called "death screen" problem (can't click fast enough to move items to the edge of the screen after level 18). 

They are now going beyond level 18 and far more. Freaking insane!

Oh amazing. Must be a very entertaining game. The graphics look very good 😀
