About:
Netris is a multiplayer networked variant of the classic Tetris game. It allows players to compete against each other over a network, sending cleared lines to opponents in real-time. The game provides a competitive twist on the traditional puzzle format, making it ideal for local or online gaming sessions.
Key Features:
  • Real-time multiplayer over TCP/IP
  • Classic Tetris gameplay mechanics
  • Competitive line sending/receiving
  • Simple terminal-based interface
Use Cases:
  • Multiplayer gaming over a local network
  • Quick competitive puzzle sessions
  • Retro gaming in terminal environments
Alternatives:
  • bastet – Bastet is a single-player 'evil' Tetris variant that chooses the worst possible next piece, whereas Netris focuses on multiplayer competition.
  • tris – Tris is another terminal-based Tetris clone, but typically lacks the networked multiplayer features of Netris.
