# Tetris Clone (Incomplete)

Creating a Tetris clone in C to practice C programming and learn more about Raylib (awesome library btw!).

For this project I am attempting to limit myself to ANSI C standards.

## Description

This game is a clone of the popular game Tetris. This clone features what you would expect from a simplistic version of Tetris, namely: falling blocks, which upon completion of a row disappear, score keeping and levels with incremental difficulty.

Here are some early screenshots of my progress:

![gameover](screenshots/game_over_screenshot.png "Game Over")

There are also quite a few features left to implement:
- Ongoing code style enhancements (relatively new to C)
- ~~Re-Implement rotation algorithm; my original algorithm was extremely buggy~~
  - Fix buggy S and T tetromino rotation
- Empty rows that are full should "break"
- Broken rows should cause other rows to shift down without losing ordering
- scoring system
- ~~display upcoming block~~
- introduce levels and increasing speed/score multiplier
