Tetris Game Engine (Simplified)

Author: Mohammed Ibrahim Ahmed | github.com/moh-i-ahmed

Description: My implementation of the Tetris programming challenge to create a simplified Tetris engine.

Pre-requisites/Setup

The following run instructions have been tested on Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS.

If you're running on Windows, you'l need to create an executable using the following instructions. There's already a provided executable for Ubuntu but the steps are included as well.

How to create an executable

  1. Install pyinstaller using pip.

    • pip install pyinstaller

  2. Create the executable using the following command.

    • pyinstaller --onefile main.py --name=tetris

  3. The created executable will be stored in the /dist folder with the name:

    • tetrix.exe for Windows
    • tetrix for Ubuntu/Linux

Run instructions

Normal mode: Run the provided executable files in the /dist folder.

  • (Windows) type <input.txt> | .\dist\tetris.exe > output.txt
  • (Ubuntu) cat input.txt | .\dist\tetris > output.txt

Dev mode: Provides more insight into the Tetris engine state.

  • (Optional) Place a different input.txt file in the main folder (/tetris_engine)

  • Run the main.py file directly. The command works for both Windows & Ubuntu.

    • python main.py --use-file
