TETRIX is the first game ever released by Martin Bourdages. It is a nice VGA game based on TETRIS, and is fast and very small compared to other games of its kind. This is the registered version of the game with 2 players enabled and an additional game.





In the game, press CTRL-F11 to slow down or CTRL-F12 to accelerate the emulator. I recommend pressing CTRL-F12 2-3 times to make the game more fluid.





Have fun!
