It's actually playable but it may hurt your eyes. I played for ~20 minutes and my eyes felt a little bit numb [Razz]

Sure it's playable, but it's evil.

I didn't have any difficulty playing it once, but then I couldn't find the "any" key to start a new game.

I can see it, but can't focus on it long enough or well enough to play a game in that sight mode. [Big Grin]

I have a headache now. I was done in by my muscle memory from other tetris games, where both the up and down arrows rotate. Too many times I dropped a piece that I wanted to rotate.

I can only see it inverted so that the blocks go inward. Any suggestions for a chronic eye crosser? Why don't they just invert everything so that crossing your eyes makes it look the right way?

Is there some trick to seeing the image? It doesn't look like anything to me. I can't even see the blocks.

Do you know what a stereogram is, Dogbreath?

Obviously whatever I'm looking at?

I've seen stuff somewhat like it before (do you see a vase or a face, is a cube inverted or "popped out") but never in this format. What's the trick?

Thanks! I tried the "how do I see them" and tried for about 10 minutes on the tetris thing, but I still can't see any image or blocks. [Frown] Oh well.

Strider: nope!

Well moving from directly at the screen then moving away i could get them to pop in the right direction. I seemed to have trouble maintaining the image outside of about 6 inches though.

Again, why don't they offer the inverted version of their photos for eye crossers like me? [Razz]

What do you mean, eye crossers?

Also, THAT IS AMAZING. I had to stop playing after awhile because I felt like my eyes were going to get stuck that way. I'm pretty good at it though, I can blink, move around, look at stuff out of the corner of my eye. It's fun.

If your focal point is closer than the image, you're crossing your eyes. If you're doing it correctly, your focal point is farther than the image. So if I cross my eyes, the tetris pieces look like they're block shaped holes in the wall.

These don't work for me anymore.

My retina detached a couple years ago and since then I pretty much see through my right eye.

I think that's how they're supposed to look.

Nope, try Tom's link for different ways to approach it until you get the image properly coming out of the window. A starfish looks like a starfish, not a mold for one.

There are no starfish blocks in Tetris.

The blocks look like they are coming out of the screen when I play the game.

I cross my eyes to see the image, and the image is not inverted from me.

Maybe you're just crazy.

I never could see those things anyway, besides isnt it bad to do something that immediatly hurts one of the most sensitive organs in your body?

I don't think so, I see the image inverted as well.

Then, clearly, neither you nor Katarain are used to focusing on things. [Wink]
