So, I just hacked a Tetris ROM to invert its color palette.
My inspiration came directly from nitro2k01's How to patch LSDj to use an inverted palette tutorial - http://blog.gg8.se/wordpress/2009/09/19 … d-palette/
I just followed the tutorial and used a copy of Tetris instead of LSDJ.
Please search for "Tetris rom for Gameboy" to find the rom file.
Here are some screenshots

Thank you nitro2k01

Can anyone say... triverted?!
You are 20 minutes late. Check the tweet!
so this means we can use nitro's inverted palette tut to mess with any GB game?

Depends on the game. In principle yes, but if a game does some funky video effects where the value is changed dynamically it's a little more complicated than just changing a value like that. It should be trivial for simple games like Tetris etc, however.
That in itself could achieve interesting results, 'cause it would glitch it out, n'est pas? I want to try that...

Probably not "glitch out" in any meaningful way, more like the play field is inverted but sprites and score/lives area is not, or something like that. Or that the screen is supposed to flash but doesn't. (Think: Defeated boss and such.)
@nitro2k01: oh, I see. Less interesting then I hoped for.
@jefftheworld: I think a hacked NES rom like that exists...
How is this different than playing normal tetris on an inverted screen?
Yeah, i play inverted tetris on an inverted screen, coded in reverse while hanging upside down.
