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:

I am currently in the progress of re-writing the entire codebase. I am a relatively new C programmer, and when I first started this project I hadn't nailed down a C style that I like. So I have been working on updating the overall style of the code; plus I have been challenging myself to use a ANSI-C standard.

There are also quite a few features left to implement:

Update codebase to use cohesive style (still haven't landed on exactly what I like)
Re-Implement rotation algorithm; my original algorithm was extremely buggy
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

I will be able to focus on those again once I finish the re-write.

2D Array Rotation Algorithm - User does provide code samples, however I choose to implement my algorithm solely from the psuedocode provided in this excellent answer.
