T3TRIS (pronounced Three-tris) is THE three-in-one tetromino-packing game.
Game 1 is ordinary Tetris, although it seems to be slightly faster
than the average Tetris game.
Game 2 is head-to-head Tetris. Both players use the same pieces
and are scored equivalently, except that whichever player holds the
lead in lines gets a bonus proportional to the duration of his lead
(measured in lines).
Game 3 is based on Bitris, a two-player cooperative version of
Tetris.
The file T3TRIS.MUS can be customized to your favorite one-voice
musical piece. Lowercase letters are naturals; capitals are sharps;
'-' sustains for another beat; 'p' rests; l# defines the length of a
note (e.g. 4=quarter, 8=eighth); n# defines legato quality (8=legato,
7=normal,4=good staccato,etc.); t# defines tempo in beats per minute.
Anything else is ignored (e.g. the 'x' lines are separators).
The source code for this program was written by Jonathan T. Higa
in Turbo C, with the inclusion of TCTIMER. Special thanks to TFB
and styamane for their useful suggestions.
