Tetris
Everybody knows tetris. The idea is to get rid of the falling blocks by stacking them such that you get a neat horizontal line with no gaps. The line is vanquished, and the lines above fall, thus providing room to keep playing...
- My question is
- Where do the vanquished lines go?
Answer?
NOT to tetris-block-heaven as you might suspect.
I think they should be saved as an image stream ... recording if you will, a log of the game...
I wonder what patterns will emerge?
Implementation
tint (Tint Is Not Tetris) was modified to record a simple log of vanquished lines. A small shell script then turns that log into a series of images - one for each game. We now have a permanent record of vanquished lines :)
The resulting image grows "up" much like you would expect given the way tetris is played... multiple rows are moved directly, and retain the visual order from the game. :)
