TETR.IO has reached the INFDEV development stage! This means that I am now giving out access to test it on a wider scale to select people. This to allow more and more diverse people to play it and give their feedback on TETR.IO, without opening it fully to the public yet (and having to worry about making a bad first impression).

Want to try out TETR.IO? Contact me with your IP and why you would like to try out TETR.IO, and I'll add you to the whitelist!

Planned for later: this won't be available until after release. But, it is something I hope to do.
Development has not yet started: this is planned, but work on the feature has not yet started.
Development has started: this feature has its framework set up and is being worked on.
Development underway: this feature is starting to become reality and has minor functionality ready to implement.
Development nearing completion: most of this feature is implemented, but it is not yet ready for release.
Rough version complete: this feature is fully implemented, but may be overhauled - it's ready for an alpha release, but should be polished more.
Fully complete: this feature is fully implemented and polished!

3. Multiplayer Lobbies

The feature to join a room by URL has been implemented (it makes short URLs like https://tetr.io/#7YhaIs6), completing the feature!

4. Quick Play

Quick Play has been implemented - join Quick Play and the room will automatically start an infinite loop of games as long as at least 2 people are in Quick Play!

9. Chat with players

Chat is nearly complete, but a swear word filter has yet to be implemented, and a few hotkeys may still be swapped around.

16. TETRA CHANNEL

All basic functionality of TETRA CHANNEL has been implemented. Stuff like MAPS and a list of players may be added later, but is not on the roadmap for Alpha (see the TETR.IO 44-Fact-Frenzy page for more info).

17. Personal Best

TETRA CHANNEL now happily saves your top 10 plays in all categories.

18. Global records

Likewise, TETRA CHANNEL now happily saves the top 1000 plays in all categories (note: the client only displays 100, but the standalone site will display all 1000).

19. Replays saved and can be watched

All plays are saved at least temporarily, and a nice replay link can be shared!

20. Custom game options

The CUSTOM GAME mode has been implemented, and already allows for lots of experimentation most other games don't provide. However, I hope to add more options to it in the future.

21. Profile w/ personal best displayed

TETR.IO displays nice badges of a user's scores when you click them. I hope to still add some extra info, like join date, before Alpha. More info could potentially go to the TETRA CHANNEL site.

41. Music by Hurt Record

I believe to have added most music I want to, but I can always add more when I find a purpose for it.

42. Controller support

Its implementation is rather basic, but I decided to add it already. Only the in-game controls work with controller (all else must still be done w/ mouse), but it's better than nothing (hence it does not get the polished icon).

Still to be done before Alpha...

5. Custom Multiplayer Rules
9. Chat with players
21. Profile w/ personal best displayed
22. Simple accounts system w/o hassle
39. Dazzling graphics
40. Custom wallpapers

Thank you for reading. If you're planning on becoming a tester, have fun!

HI OSK, could you whitelist my IP please, I would love to test your game. :)

Please contact me with your IP so I can whitelist you!

How do I do that?

When is this going to be released?

When it's ready.

When will it's ready occur?

**When it's ready.**

I'm going to go into my freezer and hibernate until release. Wake me up when it happens.

Hoping to test this!

do you still accept beta testers? I already sent a mail.

is a good game

thank you for making this blocks game mom

If my computer uses Dynamic IP, could it be a problem?

Yes

Why wasn't this on E3?

i'm poor lol

it's a very fun game and i am glad the progress is getting it closer to alpha.The music is really good and i jam to it while i MOVE BLOCK MOVE BLOCK MOVE BLOCK.

Considering that all of this was done in a month, this is quite impressive

How long does it take you to whitelist an IP? do you whitelist when someone emails you with it or do you whitelist multiple people all at once?

It depends. I usually do it in batches, unless I'm all caught up.

Even in the closed pre-alpha this is so good! Maybe it's just because it's new but I don't think I've had this much fun playing in a while :D

just saw this and looks pretty lit, can’t wait for release

nice

Awesome!

How can I be a beta tester?

it good would recommend

Were you inspired by Jstris by any chance? (another online block stacker game)

I just wanted to say thanks for such an awesome game that you are doing an amazing job on. I never played on keyboard before this and it's been really fun. I hope this continues to grow and grow for you, OSK.

When will alpha come out?

How can I test this game? plus, why my name is written on japanese on the comment??

It's anonymous names, cause you don't make an account.

TETR.IO is now in INFDEV!
