*The New Tetris* on the go—or with four controllers on the couch. **TNTV** is an unofficial native port for **PS Vita and PlayStation TV (PSTV / Vita TV)**.

## ✨ Highlights

- **🎮 Eight optimized solo stages:** All seven cultural boards plus Industrial/Finale, extensively tuned for **approximately 60 FPS** in normal single-player gameplay. Detailed work on skies, animated effects and visual fidelity.
- **👥 Up to four players on PSTV:** Real-hardware-tested 2P/3P/4P gameplay using four DualShock 3/4 controllers, with targeting, garbage attacks, Hot Potato and complete results screens.
- **🏛️ Restored Wonders:** Construction milestones, progression, 3D WONDERS Hall (including completed/in-progress/locked states), animations and the finale, with persistent unlocks.
- **🎵 Original audio and faithful gameplay:** Music and assets reconstructed locally from your ROM, original sound effects, familiar rules, original name-entry cheats and perhaps a hidden surprise.
- **🕹️ Native Vita polish:** GXM rendering, custom cybergrid pillarboxes and a toggleable FPS counter.

## 📦 Download & installation

1. Download **`TNTV-v1.0.zip`** below, extract it and install **`TNTV_v1.0.vpk`** using VitaShell.
2. Place **your own original USA 1.0 ROM** of *The New Tetris*, exactly **12,582,912 bytes (12 MiB)**, in `ux0:/data/TNTV/`.
3. Keep its existing filename. TNTV supports `.z64`, `.v64` and `.n64` files without renaming. Keep one compatible ROM in the folder.
4. Launch the game. It prepares graphics, scenes and music locally on first run; future launches reuse caches.

**No copyrighted ROM, extracted soundtrack, game-art cache or save is bundled.** When updating, preserve `ux0:/data/TNTV/tntv_sram.bin` to keep profiles, scores and Wonders progress.

The package includes [installation instructions](https://github.com/T64NCollection/TNTV/blob/main/INSTALLATION.md) and [troubleshooting](https://github.com/T64NCollection/TNTV/blob/main/TROUBLESHOOTING.md). Source builders can download **`TNTV-v1.0-source.zip`**; VitaSDK is required, but the game ROM is not needed to compile.

## 📝 Notes & credits

Performance varies by mode and scene; the ~60 FPS figure refers to normal **solo-stage gameplay**, while multiplayer and cinematic sequences have their own frame rates.

TNTV adapts the work of [chris-gilmore/tnt-splat](https://github.com/chris-gilmore/tnt-splat). The port involved **substantial AI assistance** and extensive Vita/PSTV hardware testing. Thanks to the original developers and the VitaSDK/homebrew community. TNTV is an unofficial fan project; original rights remain with their respective owners.
