Glimmer DSL for LibUI Tetris Example

#ruby #desktop #gui #libui

I recently got an issue request to build games in Glimmer DSL for LibUI, so I went ahead and built Glimmer Tetris.

Of course, I followed the Glimmer Process in building it, so I released the following version changes of Glimmer DSL for LibUI along the way:

0.2.20:

Improve examples/tetris.rb with menus, high score dialog, and options
Prevent examples/tetris.rb window from being resized
Support window resizable property (resizable false means one cannot resize window)
Support calling window.content_size = [x, y] as an alternative to window.set_content_size(x, y)
Fix issue with hooking on_content_size_changed listener to window
Fix issue with using window content_size property getter

0.2.19:

Improve examples/tetris.rb with a score board (indicating next Tetromino, score, level, and lines)
Add instant down action to examples/tetris.rb upon hitting the space button

0.2.18:

Support polygon (closed figure of lines), polyline (open figure of lines), and polybezier (open figure of beziers) shape keywords to use under path
Improve examples/tetris.rb with bevel block 3D look and restarting upon game over
Update examples/area_gallery.rb to add uses of polygon, polyline, and polybezier
Refactor examples/histogram.rb to utilize new polygon and polyline keywords
Support area request_auto_redraw, pause_auto_redraw, and resume_auto_redraw, operations, and auto_redraw_enabled property.

0.2.17:

Tetris example - basic version with simple color squares
