Waiting for that straight line seems less hectic when the various Tetris shapes are as harmless as pillows.

An animator named Niko Schatz decided it was time to give the world what it was waiting for: a softer, more playful version of the classic video puzzle game Tetris.

Schatz made it as a test of his animation skills with graphics program Cinema 4D. It shows the pieces falling one by one, bouncing around. It isn't quite as orderly as the puzzle game normally is, but it is strangely inviting.

Anyone who has ever played the infamous game knows that it can be addictive. Players have been known to obsess over forming those perfect lines, even dreaming about the game when they go to sleep. Pillow Tetris would make such an occurrence less disruptive and probably provide for a better bout of slumber.

Tetris is a puzzle game designed by Alexey Pajitnov in 1984. Though originally released for various computer platforms and in arcades, the game would become a classic as it was packed-in with Nintendo's first handheld game console, the Game Boy. Tetris would sell 35 million copies on the portable.

New versions of the game would be released for almost every computing platform or video game console. Just like with the Game Boy, the game would fine a resurgence with mobile phones and tablets. The Tetris Company announced in 2010 that the game had sold 100 million downloads for mobile devices. Current download figures puts it at over 425 million.
