XWELLTRIS(6)
β¨ XWELLTRIS β¨
okay bestie, welcome to the XWelltris manual page β section 6, games, and she is iconic. XWelltris is a 3D Tetris like popular game similar to Welltris. yes you read that right. 3D. Tetris. we are so back. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
xwelltris [options]
that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. πͺ
π DESCRIPTION π
so the idea of this game was by the Russian programmer Pogitnov, and honestly? a legend. it has the same gameplay concept as Tetris. periodt.
now picture this: you're looking into a glass, but from the top. like, bird's-eye view, main character energy. you see four walls and the bottom. π₯€
the flat 2D figures are falling down from the walls, one by one. so far so Tetris, right? but here's the twist β you can move these figures from one wall to another, or you can rotate the figure. yes. walls. plural. the way that this is not a normal Tetris is literally the whole point. π¦
and if the figure leaves the wall, it moves on the bottom while another figure is pushed. no cap.
your goal? form full rows and/or columns on the bottom. that's the vibe check. when you form such a row it disappears and you receive additional empty space on the bottom and scores :). yes the smiley is canon, I don't make the rules. πβ¨
π OPTIONS π
-d DISPLAY,-display DISPLAYβ run the game on X display named DISPLAY. like, tell it which screen to show up on. slay. π₯οΈπ
