Being a nerd like i am, i thought to celebrate, i would set myself a coding challenge. The challenge was to make Tetris. And i did. And i thought i would share it here.
[i am actually going to fully comment the code next, i just thought i’d post the code ‘as is’ when satisfied first]
Controls are cursors to move and ‘,’ and ‘.’ to rotate.
There’s loads of stuff you could do to it. Make a nicer interface. Add scoring (not just line counting). Make the speed get higher after a certain number of lines have been cleared. Add a ‘Redefine controls’ option. A high-score table. 2 player mode. Do what you like with it.
happy birthday man !

You must have the same strange things going on in your head as I do. I was planning, once I finish the initial skinning basis, to do Tetris, Hangman, Tic Tac Toe and a bunch of other games. I wanted them all to be skinnable and highly customizable in hopes that no one would have to do these games ever again!
Happy birthday and nice job! I like the color scheme and especially, it’s simplicity. You gotta love that it’s cross-platform too!
