Tetris Flip

Overview

Tetris Flip blends classic line clearing with a two-field board. Pieces always fall into the active field (bottom by default). Flip swaps the active field and lets you rescue stacks, chain clears, and build momentum.

Modes

Marathon

The classic climb. Choose a starting gravity, then clear lines to raise your level and increase speed. Score grows with clean clears, flips, and momentum bursts.

Chillax

A relaxed marathon with a locked speed. Your starting gravity stays fixed for the whole run so you can practice at a steady pace. Score still counts, but the level does not climb.

Garbage

A timed clear challenge. Pick speed (0-35) and garbage height (1-9). Both fields spawn with garbage; clear it all to win. The speed stays fixed and the leaderboard tracks fastest time per setting.

Redemption

Survive with limited lives. When a piece cannot spawn, you can spend a life to clear part of the stack and keep playing. The run ends when you are out of lives (or if you choose to stop).

Co-op Therapy

Two players control simultaneous pieces on opposite fields. One field falls while the other rises. Flips are shared, so communicate and time swaps to save each other. Player 2 can use WASD/JKL or a second gamepad.

Sirtet

Reverse gravity mode. Pieces rise instead of fall and the active field is inverted, turning familiar setups into new puzzles. Flips still swap the active field, but the gravity stays reversed.

Score Notes

Most modes track score and levels. Tetrises, flip chains, and risky clears build momentum. When the meter fills, Burst boosts score for a short window, followed by a brief recovery. Garbage focuses on clear time.
