Techmino is a multi-platform, open-source fan game developed by 26F Studio. It is available for Windows, Android, Linux, iOS, macOS devices.
Gameplay
Techmino features standard Tetris Guideline rules of gameplay; most of the mechanics can also be modified in-game. Pieces can be controlled using either a keyboard, a controller, or touchscreen buttons. To unlock other modes, you have to get at least a B rank. Every mode (except the infinite ones) has a ranking system, which uses the letters B, A, S, U, and X. The better you are at a mode (e.g. your speed in the sprint mode), the better your rank.
Modes
- Sprint — Time attack mode. Goal amount sub-modes ranges from 10 Lines to 1,000 Lines. Pentominoes, M123 (monominoes, dominoes, and triominoes), and MPH (memoryless, previewless; hold-less) are also available.
- Marathon (unlocked after clearing Sprint 40L) — Standard fixed-goal mode. Two difficult levels are available: Normal (standard speed curve) and Hard (faster speed curve). All variants have a 200-line goal.
- Ultra (unlocked after clearing Zen mode) — 2-minute score attack mode.
- Master — 20G mode, with 6 sub-modes:
- Normal (unlocked after clearing 50 lines in Hard Marathon) — 1000 levels, with a change to bone blocks on Level 900, and a torikan of 4min 20s on lvl500.
- Hard (unlocked after reach Lv.200 in Master Normal) — same level goal, but with a shorter lock delay, changes to bone blocks on Level 500, and with a torikan of 3min 3s on lvl500.
- GrandMaster Extra — simulates TGM3's invisible credit roll, but has another set of grade names: D,C,B,A,A+,S-,S,S+,S+,SS,SS,U,U,X,X+, from 0 grade point to 14 grade points, but points are capped at 12.4, 1.6 remaining points will be given after surviving 60s.
- Final — Master mode with step reset.
- Phantasm — A more difficult level-based challenge mode with 9 stages:
- Stage 1 — 0 - 11 lines — Clear 3 quadruple line clears continuously to complete this level.
- Stage 2 — 12 - 25 lines — Slight speedup, the S and Z, and J and L colors are now swapped.
- Stage 3 — 26 - 41 lines — Slight speedup, dig all the garbage blocks. Pieces return to regular colors. (If you get here without using Hold, you get a 1up)
- Stage 4 — 42 - 61 lines — Speed up, it becomes bone blocks, and you lose the ability to use Hold.
- Stage 5 — 62 - 125 lines — Lock delay is now reset with step reset instead of move reset. You get a 1up at the start.
- Stage 6 — 126 - 161 lines — Speed up. You get a 1up at the start.
- Stage 7 — 162 - 225 lines — Speed up even more. Pieces now disappear after 3 seconds. You regain the ability to use Hold. You get a 1up at the start.
- Stage 8 — 226 - 259 lines — The pieces return to regular colors. The pieces disappear after 1.5 seconds. You get a 1up at the start.
- Stage 9 — 260+ lines — Game slows down. Piece colors are randomized. You have to clear 8 quadruple line clears to win (other clears are allowed). Pieces disappear after 2/3 of a second. You get a 1up at the start.
- M21 — Plays similarly to Tetris Effect's *Master* mode, and ends after 200 lines.
- Graded — Similar to TGM3's Master mode. Has a different rank list above MO: MM-, MM, MM+, GM-, GM, GM+, TM-, TM, TM+. it's ok for topping out when reach TM+
- Strategy — Similar to Cambridge's Strategy mode. Has 6 difficulties: Easy, Easy+, Hard, Hard+, Ultimate, and Ultimate+. The Plus modes don't allow you to use Hold.
- Survival — Clear as many garbage lines as possible before topping out. Has 5 sub-modes:
- Easy — 1 garbage rows per attack. Attacks every max(1,2.5-(wave/30)) seconds, and attacks only when you have less than 4 lines pending.
- Normal — 1-4 garbage rows per attack. Attacks every max(1.5,3-(wave/30)) seconds, and attacks only when you have less than 8 lines pending.
- Hard — 1 or 3 garbage rows per attack. Attacks every max(1,3-(wave/30)) seconds, and attacks only when you have less than 15 lines pending.
- Lunatic — 4 garbage rows per attack. Attacks every max(1,2.5-(wave/60)) seconds, and attacks only when you have less than 20 lines pending.
