Tetris for Atari 2600

Tetris for Atari 2600

Written January-February 2018 for a 4k coding demoparty at Blue Origin.

I am most proud of its music, because most Tetris homebrews don't bother with that. It is not as cool as Chetiry... but then again, Chetiry needs 32K and the DPC coprocessor, so it's not really an apples-to-apples comparison.

Development

This uses the wla-dx assembler, so you will need to install that if you haven't already. To assemble, run make.sh. This will give you a ROM that you can run in Stella or whatever.

I haven't tested it on a real 2600, so hopefully it doesn't explode your TV.
