And so we have the pleasure to bring artists with incredible diverse talent to Tetris Beat and to Tetris,” Chimowitz continued.

“Today women and non-binary producers in dance music is severely underrepresented. “We then asked what genres would you like to play to or listen to the most? And the top three were pop, hip-hop, and EDM. “We definitely reached out to our current Tetris community and looked at players that play on mobile devices and we asked them if they wanted to play Tetris to the beat of the music and it was a resounding yes.” Kathee Chimowitz of N3TWORK told UPROXX. Even better, it’s going to be more than the typical Top 40. Something about those genres of music lends itself to a game like Tetris Beat perfectly and it’s no surprise that the soundtrack is expected to follow that path.

These fit a theme that also happens to match perfectly with the EDM/Hip Hop scene. Not only in how the game plays, but in the overall art style.įlashing lights, bright colors, and reverberations along to the beat can all be physically seen as players are dropping and matching. Of course, players will be able to see that rhythmic style throughout the game as they play it. Think something like Crypt of the NecroDancer, but instead, it’s Tetris. Everything from placement, to rotations, to when the matches occur is meant to be matched to the rhythm of each song. Some might argue that Tetris has always been a game about rhythm, but Tetris Beat is taking that a step beyond. Tetris Beat is taking that quote from Pajitnov, the creator of Tetris, and bringing it to its natural next step: A rhythm game. “And this, this was definitely directional for music, visuals, gameplay, the marriage of everything, that makes the iconic Tetris gameplay so wonderful and fresh to this day” Tetris is a song, which you sing and sing inside yourself, and can’t stop.” Lawrence Clark of N3TWORK told UPROXX. “One of the jumping off points for sure was a quote from Alexey who stated ‘playing Tetris is a very specific rhythmic visual pleasure for me. Of course, with simplicity comes an opportunity to create something new and that’s what the team working on Tetris Beat is attempting to do. It’s what makes the game one of the most important titles in history. A mock-up gameplay screenshot erroneously shows all four players being scored during the sequence where P4 is carried by the others in the actual gameplay, only P4’s arm movements are counted on remote consoles, and no moves are counted at all during this sequence on camera consoles.Arguably the most perfect piece of media ever created, Tetris is one of those games where it can be handed to anyone and they’ll immediately understand what’s going on.However, this does not happen in the actual routine. In the menu icon, it can be seen that the background is darker, and the blocks are glowing as they are falling and seem to have less details.Due to the song being short, the score bar moves faster than the player’s score.

The Gold Move awards the player about 770 points if done correctly, which is more than the average Gold Move awards.Tetris is the second routine where one coach is carried by others during the routine, after I Will Survive (On-Stage).It is a Russian folk song that was composed during the nineteenth century and came to be associated with the Tetris franchise due to its inclusion in the Game Boy version, where it was simply titled "A-Type". The real title of the song is "Korobeiniki".Tetris is the second video game-related song in the series, after Just Mario.
