13 Nov 16:11 2014		You need reach to level 11
14 Nov 1:42 2014		Thank you, I won it.
14 Feb 13:58 2015		Why does this game lack a Quadruple Tetris achievement? I mean, the game is all about the number 4, right?
4 May 18:58 2015		I haven't gotten it yet either. Suppose that's why it's a secret. ::Sadface::
29 May 18:01 2015		The coding is not correct to achieve passing level 9 type-A Since you have to pass level 10 to get it.
29 Feb 7:18 2016		I unlocked the achievement "100 lines cleared" by just running the game. I use Retroarch on Raspberry Pi.
25 Jun 22:56 2016		Anyone achieve the 'Secret' achievement using Retroarch? I got the flashing screen and everything but nothing popped up. All other achievements for this game have worked fine.
26 Jun 14:03 2016		Tried the same thing in RANes on Windows and I've still not had any luck - any tips appreciated!
19 Feb 8:15 2017		I couldn't get secret to unlock either. Assuming it even is the getting the demo score thing.
19 Feb 14:48 2017		Yeah, even with recent updates to Retroarch I've no had no luck despite most other issues being sorted. Must just be an awkward one!
3 Sep 8:47 2017		GOT IT! Do the demo trick and then load Game A rather than Game B. Kicking myself here!
5 Oct 2:40 2017		B-type very hard was a pain, almost 4 hours playing so I finally did it @_@
27 Oct 22:07 2017		100 lines cleared, achievment description has spelling errors, It wouldnt be hard to add the "r" to OR. :)
22 Nov 18:16 2017		That 50 pieces achievement wow....
14 May 2:47 2018		We could have Tengen Tetris (Unl) too, it would be fun :3
11 Sep 18:43 2018		That three lines, I can't get one
21 Dec 21:28 2018		28 Achievements got in a few hours, but maybe there's more to find out? ^^ BTW I got 200% complete.
4 Feb 19:34 2019		Mastered!!!... Again.
8 Feb 9:58 2019		Thanks for making those! I like that the achievements aren't too hard/grindy and that I'm not required to reach level 30 :-). Getting 200% actually seems possible.
26 Mar 3:53 2019		Mastered, never thought I'd get the Type-B levels (lvl 9 and 10 seemed hardest to me), once I switched to playing on my laptop with less input lag I could finally get those I pieces to the left edge.
