After being inspired by a similar Instructables, game enthusiast Marc Kerger decided to make his own Tetris t-shirt and share how he did it in a video he uploaded to [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ddbrand-circuit-board). You can play Tetris on a tee by printing a game screen on a plain white top. You will also need four AA batteries, 128 LED lights and an Arduino Uno controller. Kerger also included instructions on the back of his own shirt. Buttons on the t-shirt allow you to move the Tetris pieces. If you are the parent of a young child, they could also play the game and would likely be entertained by the light up, moving blocks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [DIY](https://www.trendhunter.com/diy) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Interactive Clothing:** Opportunity for creating interactive clothing that merges technology and fashion, allowing users to play games or interact with their clothing. - **DIY Gaming:** Growing trend of do-it-yourself gaming projects, where enthusiasts can create their own gaming experiences using readily available materials and simple instructions. - **Wearable Tech DIY:** Emerging trend of creating do-it-yourself wearable technology, where individuals can combine electronics and fashion to create unique and interactive clothing. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Fashion industry has an opportunity to incorporate technology and interactivity into clothing designs, allowing for new and engaging consumer experiences. - **Gaming:** Gaming industry can explore the potential of do-it-yourself gaming projects as a new avenue for user engagement and creativity. - **Electronics:** Electronics industry can provide the necessary components and platforms for individuals to create wearable tech DIY projects, catering to the growing demand for personalized technology. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Game-Inspired Playable Puzzle Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-solid.md) - [Gaming Wearable Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-watch.md) - [Celebratory Stacking Game Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-forever.md) - [Drink-Shaped Gaming Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gaming-devices.md) - [Retro Arcade-Themed Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hundreds-and-tetris.md) - [Puzzle Video Game Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sara-hyat-tetris-sofa.md) - [Blockish Oversized Stacking Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-tumble-xl.md) - [Chicken Nugget-Shaped Gaming Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-device.md) - [Game-Inspired Haptic Shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haptic-shirt.md)
