well, I made a Tetris clone too, some time ago (you can download it on my website, incl. source code)...monkeycracks wrote:Not sure if the name IrrTetris was taken,

Yes I've handled points already and in the next version I'll be putting them in the actual render window instead of the console. I couldn't really find a good speed for the block fall. I'm thinking about doing difficulties (different falling speeds for different difficulties). I'm not sure what you mean by ability to cheat, but if you can think of some neat cheats to add in a Tetris game then feel free to mention them.suggestions besides what acki said already:
- points edit: oops, didn't even notice
- longer delay after block gets to the bottom so you can attempt to rotate it a split second longer
- possibly a button that rotates the blocks the opposite direction (or let me know what it is)
- ability to cheat :p
- sound
I'll work on the first thing, and if you hold down the key it will continue to fall at the faster speed -- you don't actually have to rapidly hit it. I'll see how it behaves with the bool keys way of doing it and then decide.2 things:
1st - the game should be slower at the beginning and then getting faster (maybe increase speed every 50 succeeded rows)
2nd - if you press the down key then the blocks should fall faster as long as you press the key or even fall down completely (it seems you now have to hit the key rapidly to let the block fall faster, I think you don't use "boolean keys", do you?)
