Tetris for the Nspire!
« on: February 10, 2011, 07:50:29 pm »
Over the past few weeks, several new Nspire projects have been announced/released.  Adding to this, new Omnimaga member wRieDen has recently announced his new Tetris clone, nTris, for the TI-Nspire!

The game sports beautiful 16-level grayscale graphics and different graphics for each Tetris piece!  Likewise, features such as a score counter have recently been implemented.  More information on the development of this project can be found in the nTris thread.



It is great to see classic games like Tetris being ported to the Nspire.  Hopefully, in the future, the Nspire will have as diverse a game library as is currently present for other TI calculators!

We wish wRieDen luck in continuing development of his great project! :)

The current beta of this project can be downloaded here!

Wow that is looking simply beautiful!  Really glad to see all 16 colors are being implemented and used, and quite well I might add!  I can't wait to see what else is added to this wonderful project :D

Yeah!  The Nspire needs a good Tetris clone, and this one looks like it'll do nicely.  Good luck finishing it up, wRieDen. :)

This is another really good use of Nspire graphics. Great work and good luck!
