✨ XWELLTRIS ✨

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. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

xwelltris [options]

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. πŸͺ„


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

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. πŸ₯€

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. πŸ¦‹

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. 😭✨


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -d DISPLAY, -display DISPLAY β€” run the game on X display named DISPLAY. like, tell it which screen to show up on. slay. πŸ–₯οΈπŸ’œ
