--LAUNCH--

Hi all! After several stages of iteration, Chesstris 2000 is now available to download or play in your browser! 

--ABOUT--

Chesstris 2000 is part block pushing game and part love letter to the forgotten tetris spinoffs of the 90s and 2000s. Throughout the game, players must navigate a chess piece attached to a tetris block to an exit square on the board. Eventually, players learn to master not only different chess pieces -- pawns, rooks, knights-- but also different tetromino shapes, line clears, and more!

A major focus of developing Chesstris 2000 involved not only making its puzzles fun, but also making its ~~vibes~~  coherant. An homage to titles like Tetris for Philips CD-i, Tetrisphere, Myst, and educational software, the game features three different whimsical, soothing environments and a vaporwave soundtrack by Stevia Sphere 

--FUTURE--

I had a ton of fun with my first full-length dive into the puzzle genre with Chesstris 2000. At about 90 minutes of playtime, I hope to provide a moderately short and sweet puzzle experience. However, I do feel there can be much more to explore in the realm of chess pieces and tetrominos, and hope to expand upon it someday!
