Brawl Stage of the Week: It's Tetris time
Last week we mentioned that we wanted to feature a DS-related stage. Reader Chris stepped up and sent us two Tetris levels, one of which we chose to feature.
Called "Sziltoj 2," this stage is meant to represent "a Tetris game in progress," according to Chris. Considering the limited amount of tools that you're given in the stage builder, we think he pulled this off pretty well. Come check out how after the break!

As you can see from the picture above, the Tetris blocks were made with different colored stage pieces so that each familiar shape stands out. All the blocks from the classic title are accounted for at the bottom, aside from the coveted long bar.
Chris added the long block up top, though (depicted in our gallery), which was built by falling boxes to represent Tetris in motion. Evoking the essence of the bar slowly dropping downward by using falling pieces is a simple, but clever idea.
Since Sakurai didn't give us an official stage themed with one of our favorite puzzle games, we have no qualms about brawling on this one.
