HELP! Dying to remember a AMIGA PD Tetris game!
« on: November 12, 2011, 11:53:27 PM »
OK here we go lol! Amiga Tetris, I am sure there were a couple right?
Uh huh, well what I remember is, and I may not be accurate is it was a  well playing, basic version of good old TETRIS but the most memorable  thing about it that I loved is the background music was PHIL COLLINS IN  THE AIR TONIGHT! It was addicting to me to play this and listen to that  loud thumping drum solo! For the life of me I do not recall the name of  this wonderful TETRIS game! PLEASE HELP!

Naw I checked Tetri Pro, very nice but this one was definitely more plain graphically and the only song was Phil Collins In the Air Tonight over and over...............

Also pretty sure it was JUST the music, no voice, Here is originally video of the song if it helps refresh anyone's memory..........

do you remember if it was a standalone Tetris or it was embedded/hardcoded in another tool like Tetra Copy or such?

even because due the music copyright limitation, it could have been some "home-made" not that legal thing! :-)

Standalone, fullscreen Tetris clone I am pretty sure....

Positive it was PHIL COLLINS IN THE AIR TONIGHT and l also single Tetris screen so NOT Twintris......thanks anyway but after posting on several Amiga boards I am really thinking perhaps it was an obscure PD contribution perhaps from Aminet or some coverdisk and probably lost to me forever....:(

I think the game you are describing really exists because I also vaguely remember it.  I also thought I remembered playing it from your very first post but I have no idea what the name of the game is.

Well this is definitely not one of those "I think I remember" or "Maybe it was a dream" etc. No question it existed I played it sooooo much and will never forget the music or drum solo, I was living with roommates at the time and this one girl even loved it even got to the point she was asking to play the game a little to much lol! I think the problem is it was simply obscure and possibly just something found as a submission on a coverdisk or something. I just never thought one day in the future it would haunt me so or I would have kept better details.......
