The great thing about this game compared to Pentris, is that this one actually makes sense with its rules, even if both are modified version of Tetris. While Pentris is like "yeah let's just make new 5-blocks pieces and get over with it", ignoring at all the problems this can cause, Tritris' creator stopped and put a lot of thoughts about how to solve obvious problems meeting when the rules are the same, but the pieces are completely different, making it a new game, with new rules, and, of course, competitivie. I really hope this turns into something bigger, it can be just as (or even more) interesting than Tetris itself.

Wow, thank you so much! A lot of thought from me, along with the rest of the Tetris community went into Tritris, and I'm so happy with how it turned out :) Adding the white triangle was one of the greatest things to happen as it led to the phasing mechanic, which unlocks so many possible combinations, as well as scoring a Tritris, and the interesting ways to setup for one.

I’m pretty good at it I’d say

Suddenly reminded of "Pyramid". That piece was hella cursed in that. So much so that the dev included a bomb mechanic to try and remove the disasters it caused. But they somehow managed to make that worse than the cursed piece itself as the bombs just kinda rng'd what to remove and leave behind causing holes you couldn't clean up.

I laugh every time he gets cursed green piece

This looks both wrong in every way and awesone at the same time. Such a cool concept

Even though this game is cursed, it brings this warm fuzzy feeling to all tetris players because it takes us back to when we were new to the game and just learning the mechanics.

Tetris is already my brain running at full capacity. This just puts it over the edge.

i remember programming tetris at school for fun and we introduced a "hollow" piece that was 3x3 piece with an empty space in the middle, a "slash" piece that was like a long bar but diagonal and a "fog" piece, that was random 3 single pieces in 3x3 matrix, that could be rotated until the piece was set and then every "loose" single piece set down by "gravity" 😀

Yo, cool game and coverage! I regret putting off watching it :p The more I work on my own little games/mods, the more I really appreciate hearing about game design decisions like these, I think Goel did a great job! Another game I think would be really cool to look at is "Puzzle Juggle Trouble" by Lilla Oshisaure. It's built around a lot of Modern Tetris-style mechanics like SRS, which I know is a little off-brand here, but it's really fun IMO (also 2-player local :o )!

Really neat variant with some cool mechanics. Hope it catches on :)

The necessity for the single pieces could be reduced (but not entirely stripped) if the bottom of the panel was "V" shape. While it would still be possible to get those areas where the single pieces are required, you'd get that happening considerably less often and would just 'feel' a lot better. As it is though it's fine, just something I hope they consider/considered.

This is the most infuriating Tetris variant ever, and I kinda love it.

@Tanmay Jain Then you'll get destroyed by the math community; they don't like people mixing circles and squares like that.

There is already a game like this for the NES. An unlicensed game by Sachen called Pyramid. It doesn't have quite as many different pieces that are on this one, I think only 5 or 6 of them. But they knew that the game was way harder than Tetris since they added a bomb button that allows you to drop a bomb and clear out a decent sized chunk of an area you may or may have not messed up.

I feel like the white triangles should clear, but count as a tri-tris. Maybe show them in the pre-view as a sort of ammo, first showing 3 triangles, then 2, then 1 as you drop each one in.

Saw the title and just came to comment that it should be called "tritris" then read the description, Thank god

This is really neat. I've seen some people play something that's pretty much just like this. It's a bootleg NES game called Pyramid.

This is very reminiscent of Pyramid for the NES. It's surprising no one seems to have brought it up.

I feel like utilizing those C pieces are the equivalent to executing T-spins

I somehow managed to get 4,000 on one of my first runs. And was never able to beat it

The full lines waiting until all three single triangles are placed is basically the Zone in Tetris Effect.

One cool idea for this would be if the squares you form diagonally would clear that "line" diagonally.

> The most playable versions of Pentris are the ones that give you every possible mino all the way down to 1 Around 2010~2011, people in my dorm at MIT actually coded up an "ntris" that goes from 1 to I think ~9 squares per piece? The website they made for it at the time seems defunct now but iirc it averaged larger piece counts as the level got higher (at the same time as the speed went up). But minos as small as 1 still *could* drop at higher levels (they just got rarer).

I just want to mention that there’s always a NES game of this back in the 80’s.

if you like pentris check out combinos, which starts out like tetris and slowly adds higher and higher pieces as you go. it's the only tetris varient i'm roughly good at & im not very good at it but id like to see ppl get good at it

That looks like a great game!

I'm a reminded a lot of a Puyo clone for Linux (iirc there was a Windows port but idk if it's still available for download anywhere. The code is open source so if you want you could theoretically compile it yourself) called Cuyo, which is single-player and instead focused on stages where you have to clear all of the garbage puyo, with different twists on the standard rules of how pieces connect to each other It includes such tweaks to the rules as: - a stage where matches can be made in 8 directions rather than only 4 - a stage where matches can only be made diagonally, not vertically or horizontally - stages where the pieces are aligned on a hex grid rather than a square grid - a stage where you match based on the movement that Knights in Chess follow. Matches are made between pieces that are either two spaces apart vertically and one horizontally, or one space vertically and two horizontally. Matches are indicated by a diagonal line connecting the pieces.

Pyramid solved the gaps problem by giving a limited number of missiles that could obliterate mess; and whenever you score a double line, you gain one missile.

This was great to watch you play it instead of me trying it myself and raging :)

@titopaul9299

Thanks for this comment. It made me look up the definitions. It seems that both you and Scout are right. Scout clarifies in the video that Goel is using isosceles triangles that are "basically splitting a square in half". This just another way of saying to a non math major audience "Goel in his game is using an isosceles right triangle." An isosceles right triangle (Tritris Triangle) is both a right triangle (one corner is 90 degrees) and an isosceles triangle (2 sides have equal length). By themselves both isosceles triangles and right triangles are broad categories that can mean many different types of triangles. Obviously an equilateral triangle (sides are all the same length) is still a type of isosceles triangle but a unique one.

Look into a game on the NES called Pyramid by Sachen Enterprises (unlicensed NES cart), published by American Video Systems in the US.

I think it would help if you could flip the pieces mirror like. It would reduce the gap problem a lot and it would make it easier and you could have more pieces

This is basically NES Pyramid, which was on Kusogrande the bad video games tournament because triangles are absolutely cursed
