Welcome to TEXTRIS

Objective: don't let the pieces overflow the top of the board! The game never stops 👀

Starting the Game

To start the game, we recommend users have typed out the !TextrisInfo command (NOT in a channel titled 'textris') to understand how the game works. Then, a user must type !start in a channel titled 'textris'. Have fun!

Commands:

All commands (except for !TextrisInfo, !recent, !replace, and !threshold) are to be used in a channel titled textris

• !start | start game [MUST BE IN textris CHANNEL]
• !TextrisInfo | display rules
• !left, !l | move piece left

• !rotcc, !cc | rotate piece counterclockwise

The following commands are specifically for users with the textris mod role:

  -options for x are [i,o,s,z,l,j,t,blank,clear(displayed when lines are cleared),highlight, and preview(the blank emojis in the hold piece/next piece previews)]
