lol how did you accidentally work through the very challenging Type B awards :D
wennug 16 Jun 2020 13:58
IDK fam. I tried to beat easier level of B type like 9 months ago but can only pass the 9-5. then unintentionally i opened my retroarch just in early of this month (June) and it just happened, lol. It was very hard, tbh
dairukan 10 Oct 2020 20:11
Finished yesterday. I'm afraid I didn't enjoy this because of the B-type levels, I think the ones above 9 should have been in a bonus set. The hypertapping needed to beat it really hurt my hands. Should have used turbo buttons. Carpal tunnel sucks.
Kisumebuckets 25 Oct 2020 00:57
It was a hard set. Hope someday we can get a level 19 B achievement. I would enjoy the challenge.
GatoBoldon 10 Nov 2020 15:26
Mastered. Thank you for the set.
LogstarGo 18 Nov 2020 05:13
Er, aren't 10 and 12 (and 16 and 18) the same speed?
Couch 13 Dec 2020 02:13
Mastered. Very cool having achievements in Tetris so thanks for this!

Boom tetris for Jeff
Shaunanigans 31 Dec 2020 13:55
Got em All :D Type B Level 16-3 and 18-3 were tough! Thanks for the set.
CrazyUncleGaming 13 Sep 2021 01:41
Trying to get 8 Tetris lines in a row is harder than I thought! Hoping to get lucky with the pieces soon
MrScottyTay 2 Jan 2022 13:33
"With one hand" says it's unsupported, anyone know why?
MrDynamite 6 Feb 2022 19:02
Mastered! B-Type Level 10-5 was the hardest for me. Thanks for this set <3

Any advice to do 16 and 18 type B? I tried everything but after a week I can't control the pieces doing DAS and I can't hypertap with my left hand
RetroDave82 22 Jun 2022 14:51
I am a frickin' Tetris master ... By the way I did it all with DAS only and it just took a lot of practice and sticking at it. Also for the B-Type just learn to fight on no matter what and don't quit. I just finished 18-3 and nearly topped at at the start but it ended up helping me get the lines I needed.

The Tetris Gods are the effing ones who can complete the last 2 challenges. I'm on the 2nd to last one and I've played at least 300 games and my record is 5 lines. I'm not even going to bother with the last 2 challenges. Not worth the aggravation. Good luck!

Heliante 16 Sep 2022 19:07
Wow, Snowstorms (Clear B LVL18 H3) and Ostriches (Clear B LVL16 H3) were the toughest of the bunch. If you need help, try to find DAS tutorial on youtube. Otherwise, keep trying, it took me one week and a half just for those two.
js92 4 Dec 2022 22:47
Mastered! :)
Good set.
Rileyyy 29 Dec 2022 16:16
I play this exclusively for the type 3 music. It's so good.
