Alas... Tetris

Hey! Do you remember in my last post, I mentioned I was working on Tetris? Well, here it is:

You can find it on my Code Pen or GitHub!

  • The code is a mess
  • It's a little janky (as the subtitle suggests)
  • Controls for mobile are a sham

But for the most part it's playable!

I used pure JavaScript because I'm too lazy to learn any library or framework. But, honestly, I like it better this way! Part of the fun of coding is figuring out the logic and putting together a solution that works. And there were many times it did not work... But when it did, the satisfaction was unmatched!

This is a big achievement for me in my game development journey. And despite being lazy, what better way to celebrate than to learn an actual game engine like Phaser JS or Unity?

To Be Continued...
