Okay, so brace yourself. This one's pretty darn cool, and it'll knock ya socks off. Well, not literally...
This afternoon, around 3:30, I got pretty bored. Having cancelled a large scale project I was planning to release, I started to brainstorm on other ways to spend my time...That way--was found. After about 20 minutes of programming, I'm excited to announce that a new project has been finished. Tetromino 2K. A Tetris clone programmed in JavaScript in just 2.68 kilobytes! Considering that the original version for the GameBoy was much larger, it's a cool lil' feat to pull off.
That said, while it is pretty neat, it's not perfect..just almost perfect. The game functions just like any other Tetris clone. It's very accurate to the original gameplay of the GameBoy, but it lacks a few minor things. Music, being the most glaringly obvious. Other functionality works perfectly though. I plan to release it later today on my projects page. I should also mention that I realized this is what I wanted to do. Make fun games in a tiny, tiny space. So, with that, more games like Tetromino 2K are totally coming soon! I already have a few in mind... :)
