Today's Digital Diamond is a special treat for those of us who grew up with the old black-and-green Game Boy systems: a stop-motion Tetris game, made inside Minecraft, by JoBilly! This breath-taking pixel-by-pixel recreation took many hours to complete, one snapshotted frame at a time. In response to massive skepticism of the video's authenticity, the author has provided numerous sources of proof, including a . This video has to be seen to be believed, give it a look!

Digital Diamonds is an ongoing look at Minecraft-related videos that have been submitted to the Minecraft forum video section. We'll be selecting memorable videos and those resonating with the community to share with everyone on the front page.

This stop motion stuff that has been posted lately is kind of neat, but it's more or less glorified pixel art....

Lol, I was like "wow, this person played tetris and posted it on mc forums ._."
Then I saw it WAS in minecraft, then I thought "well, he's still using a texture pack"
Then I downloaded the map and saw that he used the default texture pack and from up above it just looks like a different one because he placed so many.
To anyone who thinks he used a texture pack:
The bricks on the side are stone, with the corner shining is snow.
The text is obsidian.

Pretty cool, but I don't like building pointless stuff like that on minecraft.

Good work though it looks just like the real game.

I truly thought at first it was real Tetris, that is until I got in a bit and realized what it truly was.
