This Thursday I was 4 seconds and 1 Tetris away from being crowned Master, which for lack of better phrasing is really fucking hard. Truly crushing but there's still work to be done. Hope to update you all shortly

Got this while registering a textbook. Reminds me of playing old DOS games, except this time I actually have the manual. Good feeling!

I have gone on record many times saying it isn't possible to die in Tetris if you simply don't want to. Despite this earning me many a sarcastic rib from friends after failed attempts, I stand by this philosophy. There is always a way out, and if you couldn't find it, you didn't want it enough.

First ever sub-9 (Cutoff time for grandmaster is 8:45). This run was nothing special (see: s8) yet also the best I've ever played. Need to play more for tetrises in later sections, I keep getting triples and it's hurting my grade bad

In case anyone ever wanted to play The World's Nine Best Games Ever, I've compiled them all into one image. You're welcome

When the background scrolls on the designated scenic overlook screen >>>>>>>>>>

My first real master mode clear. Only S7 is disappointing but I can smell S9 orange line on the horizon. Now to keep pushing

new pb, puts me in top 100, i know every speedrunner says the same thing but this run was lowkey shit I think 10:2X is easy

this week I've been playing the best tetris ive ever played in my life, im getting grades at levels i never thought possible (s4 before 700) and yet i still choke at 940 every time without fail. i think it's time to seriously grind ta death and have no fun. ill post a credits clear by tomorrow

Wrote a clone of a Kirby's Dream Land 3 minigame in javascript this week. Never made a game before so might be a little rough around the edges. Try it and let me know what you think: dirksen.co.uk/jumping

Quake 3 is one of the most beautiful competitive games I've ever experienced. A game where finding yourself airborne in a firefight leads to certain death, and where your sole movement option is jumping through the air in a straight line. Strafe jumping is so simple yet infinitely elegant in context

i will lose the game to keep chaining any time any day i do not care #WeMove

why did i ever stop playing puzzle league man chaining is so fun

Been wearing this shirt for most of christmas and I have no clue why. It is seriously one of the ugliest things I own. If I was my parents I would have killed me already

a christmas miracle (12:13 AM), first tier3 clear, my arm was legit shaking last 10 minutes happy holidays every 1

Super Metroid is a fantastic game but I got bored and put it down halfway through when I played it a few years back. Gave Hollow Knight a try on Wednesday and have since sunk nearly 20 hours into it. Probably one of the best games I've ever played. Simply one immaculate design decision after another

brain decided to take a nice little breather at 800 😊 its okay buddy take your time

Yesterday's SAGE armory meant ransacking my closet for my old CC Dromai deck, which I built and took to a Battle Hardened two years ago. Somehow I didn't get judge called for these bad boys, and I have no fucking clue why I thought this was a better idea than just finding reds lmfao

Thought I'd watch a quick severance ep.2 before bed and now an hour later it's 1:20 AM and I feel sick to my stomach and im lowkey depressed #WeMove

First S9 clear since March! 20G Tetris is maybe the most nerve-wracking, skill-testing thing I've ever done. Every emotion I've ever felt in my life, every high, every low, has been solely because of this game. If I had to pay per play as intended I would be on the streets in days

Whats up guys my names Michael and Tetris the grand master 2 is a really bad game If you happen 2 Fuck up like 4 times in a row But I still love it
