1-D tetris

Check it out, and I challenge you to find a worse game

[Gabriel Synthesis]

i think calling it a game is a bit unfair

if you take it at face value as a joke then i think it's actually quite good

[crystal X]

that is poor

[sexual_harassment_panda]

Firebase is worse

[Forgone Conclusion]

Firebase isn't too bad once u realise what the hell is going on, what you are meant to do, and how you control everyone

[Adamski]

as in:
- there's a war on
- u control a load of GIs who have to kill as many gooks as possible
- u click each man and double click to make him go there
- send everyone to the bunker in the middle, radio for a supply crate there, then go do something else.

[Gabriel Synthesis]

by do something else do you mean anything else apart from playing firebase?

[Echoes]

uhuh

i got up to 189 and it refused to believe that was my score and didn't count it.

Which one's the radio man?!

However it's not really 1D, A 1D game would simply be a dot with no dimensions. There would be no characters, no gameplay, no graphics.....
Except for the dot.....
And no story.....
Except for the fact that the dot is named Gerald.

Does that make the dot a character?

[Gabriel Synthesis]

how can a dot have no dimensions?

[Beej]

How can anything have just one dimension?

[sexual_harassment_panda]

A line is one dimensional...

they can't, but that's not the point

and SHP technically a line has 2 dimensions unless it has no thickness and is either invisible or non existant, either way it can't really be classed as a line

[sexual_harassment_panda]

A line is infintessimally thin...hence 1 dimension

[Droogie]

i love this game.

[Forgone Conclusion]

Look, it's impossible to actually get a one-dimensional thing, but in THEORY it is possible

if you want to argue about a line being 1-dimensional you're going the wrong way about it, a line either has a thickness or it doesn't.

a line is one dimensional in that it only extends in one direction but in that case you have to admit that 1-D tetris is also one dimensional given that it only moves vertically

[Forgone Conclusion]

not necessarily, it may only move in one direction, but it does not noecessarily make the blocks one dimensional

[Gabriel Synthesis]

ah but the game is one dimensional

[Forgone Conclusion]

no, the movement of the blocks is, not the game in it's entirety
