What is Tetris: Tempo?

Tetris with a twist! Play NES-Style tetris with a time limit (your life). For every line you clear, you gain time. If you clear a tetris (4 lines), you gain even more time. You can spend your time on blocks and add those to your queue.

Once you lose, submit your score and see if you make the leaderboard!

Motivation

We felt that the theme was a little tough to brainstorm with initially. We decided to make a simple game, using a proven concept, and add a little to it. This is standard tetris, but you are on a timer and can spend time to buy more blocks. This was two of the team members first time making a game, and we believe it came out pretty well. We appreciate any and all feedback!
