Inspiration
If you're anything like me, Tetris is the game you play while listening to lectures or waiting in line. It's an arguably perfect game -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnztj1UlkQs- with snacky game-play and an incredible legacy on human culture. After years of taking turns playing Tetris with siblings and students, I thought I'd come up with a way to combine the Tetris I know and love with the kind of quality, local-multiplayer that we just don't get enough of these days. To this end I am proud to present CoOpTris: a loving homage to the game that's meant so much to me and a gift to all the friends who have played alongside me these many years.
What does it do?
Not much Adam Smith, but that's not the self-deprecating comment it sounds like. Some things exist he help us survive, other things —such as games— gives us a reason to want to. I can't say for sure whether CoOpTris will have that effect on anyone, but the possibility makes it a worthwhile to me.
How I built it
With a lot of debugging, candy, good company, and some help from websites like StackOverflow.com and CodeExplained.org.
Challenges I ran into
"Javascript is a language that doesn't seem like it wants to work" - Anonymous Sage
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
After a long night of development, I got to enjoy playing CoOpTris with family and some great friends.
What's next for CoOpTris
A high score list, a better background, control layouts, better controls, and about a thousand other things. Development never ends.
