I made a tetris variant Aims to remove all stress, and focus the game on what I like the best - stacking. No timer, no score, no gravity. Move to the next piece when you are ready, and clear lines when you are ready. Separate mobile + desktop controls

Hi HN, I wanted to share a web game I’ve been building in HTML, JavaScript, MySQL, and PHP called LINEX. It is primarily designed and optimized to be played in the mobile browser.
