About Tetris monochrome
Tetris monochrome is a puzzle game by John Swana, submitted to the js13kGames 2020 competition. Like every js13k entry, it was built from scratch in under 13 kilobytes — code, art, audio and all — which is an extraordinary constraint that forces clever, focused design. It was recognised in the 2020 competition.
This entry is part of our catalogue because it represents the spirit of the size-limited game jam: complete, playable experiences distilled to their essence. Play it on the official js13k showcase to see what fits in 13KB.
