Vanilla Tetris

Tetris game engine written in functional ES6.


Brief:

Tetris game API with wide backend and frontend configuration possibilities.

Goals:

A self-assigned programming excercise which main goals were: \    1. To learn the differences between object-oriented and functional styles; \    2. To design an API with separation of concerns in mind; \    3. To practice TDD and procedural programming;

See live v.1.0.0

(This is a MVP... ).

TODOs:

make game work; \

  • apply some styling;

Example Usage

Gameboard Setup

Create or import the gameboard configuration object:

// The default gameBoard object looks like this:
const gameBoard = {
  pixel: 15, // basic game measurement unit, the assgned value is in actual canvas units
  width: 10, // gameboard width expressed in game units (pixels)
  height: 20, // gameboard height expressed in game units (pixels)
  tempo: 1000, // tetromino's falling rate, in ms
  stockLength: 3, // amount of tetrominos in queue
  tetrominoHeight: "random", // useful for testing purposes only
  colorPalette: "classic" // to be changed and moved to GUI config file...
};
module.exports = gameBoard;
// In the tetrisAPI.js file:
// Import or pass inline the configuration object:
const gameBoard = require("./gameBoard");
const tetris = require("./tetrisAPI")(gameBoard, update);

HTML <canvas> implementation example:

// In the tetrisAPI.js file:
// Import or pass inline the configuration object:
const gameBoard = require("./gameBoard");
const tetris = require("./tetrisAPI")(gameBoard, update);

.isGameRunning()\ Returns:\    Type: boolean\    Default: false \ A flag to indicate whether the interval is set or cleared;

.startGame()\ Sets the game state to initial value and starts the gameloop; .isGameRunning() will return true;

.pauseGame()\ Pause the gameloop; .isGameRunning() will return false;

.moveDown()\ Moves the current tetromino block one pixel down.

.moveRight()\ Moves the current tetromino block one pixel right.

.moveLeft()\ Moves the current tetromino block one pixel left.
