Wait a minute. I just had a realization about the first strip.

The blocks DO accelerate lol they come down faster and faster as you level xD

Can't believe this didn't occur to me right away considering how much Tetris I've played :O

yes the bricks fall faster, but iirc, they fall faster at a constant rate..

Maybe the gravity is just really low and all bricks you will ever use are falling from the start of the game?

What about air resistance and terminal velocity?
No I'm never serious.

Level 9 is terminal velocity already (in most tetris games, I believe?). Maybe the bricks fall from a diving-board kind of setup.

----- Level 9

----- Level 8

etc.

This way the bricks will have a different velocity when they reach the ground depending on the level they are dropped from, but would require some pretty sick calculations as for when to drop what, so that they enter the screen of the player at a constant rate, but it's definately possible. Also the pieces would have to be dropped on a planet/moon where the gravity is very low. Someone wanna take a stab at how the pieces can instantly "turn", or rather, morph into a different shape? Lets make tetris IRL.
