Sonic Tetris Blast

Felicia.iso

Simple coder girl
in STB there will be 3 main modes
singleplayer campaign: 8 stages with different gimmicks, reach the required lines to go to the next stage
endless mode: the classic way to play Tetris
netgame match: make lines to send garbage blocks to opponents and defeat them

controls:
right/left = move the piece
weapon next/prev = rotate the piece
down = soft drop (the piece falls faster)
space = sonic drop (the piece is immediately snapped to the end of the grid, but it can still be moved)
space (when hold for a bit) = hard drop (the piece is immediately snapped to the end of the grid and its placed)
spin = holds the piece

coming soon

Couldn't think of a way to get tokens for the levels, but having tetris themed special stages sounds cool
perhaps in 1.1?
Tetris themed special stages for a level pack would be my idea here, because while it is fun to hack a different game into an engine like SRB2, there are plenty of dedicated 2D game engines you can use for a serious game of this genre (even FOSS ones).

The screens show you have nailed the basic gameplay at least.

For special stages I would have to come up with plenty of ideas, otherwise they would be normal tetris stages, which would remove the special of special stages

A couple of suggestions:
1. Build a path up to the Chaos Emerald. Basically just placing blocks down so that Sonic can traverse upwards. With each consecutive Special Stage, to Emerald is higher in order to increase difficulty
2. Base them on other falling block puzzle games like Dr. Mario and Puyo Puyo

adding an entire new set of rules for different tetris-like game would probably be too hard and break something
I don't understand what you mean with the first suggestion though

Think of it kinda like Mario Maker. As the blocks are coming down, you’ll basically have to build a staircase that leads up to the goal/emerald. The height of the goal/emerald is dependent on what numbered special stage you’re in. When you’re done with your staircase, you press a button and Sonic is summoned into the Tetris box. Playing with regular SRB2 rules, you control Sonic as he jumps up the Tetris staircase you built and collects the Emerald. The whole process is under a time limit which can be extended a little bit by clearing lines. Sonic is always spawned on the bottom of the box, so you have to make sure that he has a straight path up to the Emerald

the grid is..just a grid, I would have to recreate the physics from 0 to add that, and the grid might be too small and make these special stages ripetitive

Turns out there’s an official Tetris game that has a similar concept to that. I’d recommend just looking at official variants of Tetris to see what you can do

hm..maybe I could make something like that, guess I only need an idea for how to get tokens
 
First it was a kart racer, then a Persona-like RPG, now SRB2's a Tetris fangame! I'm still hyped for SRB2 Party, though.

I play tetris, being an intermidate (i cant spell) at tetris is great, Then i saw your mod on the mb and i was like "MMMM REAL NICE!" So we're having Riders, Persona, Kart, Party, and This. quintuple fantastic modified games.
 
so small I update I should have said before, but forgot to
I am actually taking a break from srb2 to try and create a game of my own, for Sonic Tetris Blast..I had actually completed it before taking the break, but it wasn't tested and it doesn't have tokens or emeralds, so I was unsure if to publish it or not
and well..I still am unsure so..¯\_(ツ)_/¯
