About Retro Tetris
Retro Tetris is a Tetris game that runs in the Windows console. It uses a green-phosphor visual palette and ANSI escape codes to draw the game in a terminal-style window, giving it a retro text-based appearance. The game reads input through the Windows console API and is written in x86-64 assembly using NASM. It is a self-contained console game rather than a graphical desktop application, with the familiar falling-block puzzle presented through character-based rendering. Its implementation details make it distinctive for users interested in low-level Windows programming as well as for players looking for a minimalist Tetris experience. The game’s character-based presentation gives the familiar puzzle a compact console form.
