I enjoyed playing Linex! It reminds me of doing perfect clear solves in Tetris, but without the stress :) I appreciate the skip, next, and hole-fill power ups.
If you don't mind me asking, how are you doing piece generation? Is it random%7, drawing from a bag, or something else?
On the topic of reflexes decaying (I'm getting there, in my late 30s): Have you played Stackflow? It's a number go up roguelite disguised as an arcade brick stacking game, but the gravity is low enough that it is effectively turn based. More about 'deck' building, less about chaining PCs and C-Spins.
Very cool! I am a good Tetris player (in the top 10% of players) and wanted to give brick yeeting against an LLM a spin.
Some feedback:
- Knowing the scoring system is helpful when going 1v1 high score
- Use a different randomization system, I kept getting starved for pieces like I. True random is fine, throwing a copy of every piece into a bag and then drawing them one by one is better (7 bag), nearly random with some lookbehind to prevent getting a string of ZSZS is solid, too (TGM randomizer)
