While originally based on the NTSC version of the game, the patched ROM supports PAL and NTSC gameplay types.
TetrisGYM is distributed in the form of a BPS patch and can be applied to the USA version of the game with Rom PatcherJS or similar.
A link to the BPS can be found on the releases page.

Savestates allow you to save and reload playfields as many times as you want. These configurations are stored on your cart, and will persist after poweroff.
Savestates require SRAM to work. Tested and working on Everdrive / Emulator / MiSTerFPGA.
Combined with the level editor, savestates are effective for practising specific scenarios.
Dictate if the NTSC or PAL gameplay mechanics should be used. Should automatically detect region, but can be manually overwritten otherwise.
