Realtime Multiplayer Tetris in HTML5 (unfinished)

About a year ago me and a buddy joined Google's HTML5GameJam, a game building hackathon. Finally I've had the time to dust the project off, upgrade some of the required libraries (node.js bumped from 0.4.2 to 0.8.11 in the meantime) and did some minor patching to get it done for some finishing touches and hopefully release somewhere this year. We implemented the full real Tetris® (yeah, that means T-Spins and funky stuff Tetris addicts like) in MVC, with configurable renderers (canvas, ASCII, Divs), input methods (keyboard, swipe, touch), 2player split mode and offline singeplayer.

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

About a year ago me and a buddy joined Google's HTML5GameJam, a game building hackathon. Finally I've had the time to dust the project off, upgrade some of the required libraries (node.js bumped from 0.4.2 to 0.8.11 in the meantime) and did some minor patching to get it done for some finishing touches and hopefully release somewhere this year. We implemented the full real Tetris® (yeah, that means T-Spins and funky stuff Tetris addicts like) in MVC, with configurable renderers (canvas, ASCII, Divs), input methods (keyboard, swipe, touch), 2player split mode and offline singeplayer. The multiplayer support is inspired by Tetrinet ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TetriNET ), powerups are all implemented but it's not yet possible to bomb one of your opponents. I have no clue how the (self-hosted) hacked up node.js game server will perform , and there's no game rooms yet, but the basics work. Please have a look, comments, suggestions and inspiration would be appreciated. How should we do the touch input for instance? I'd like it if I can be as good a Tetris player on my mobile as in the browser with the keyboard.

    It's been about 3 weeks since I dusted off the Multiplayer Tetris game that me and a buddy wrote A year ago and that's been collecting dust since then. A lot of after work and weekend hours have been pooring into the project since then, and I think it's about time to show the progress What's been done: - Preloading - Completely rewrote layout for desktop / tablet browsers using css3 :target. - Usage instructions added (one of the comments I got: "Yeah, it works, but how do I play?" ) - Sending all powerups to other users now works (click on another user's playfield to send powerup) - Game…

    hi all, I've always wanted to make my own game, but couldn't afford a thousand-dollar adobe (flash+photoshop) license. I'm not a talented programmer, have no degree in CS. But I understand some elements of design. So I got me a copy of ImpactJS, and after about 5 months of steep learning curve (at least for me), I managed to come up with a game. I also integrated it with a highscore and badge system, similar to what you get at Kongregate. You need to login with Google/OpenID to earn badges/scores. link is: http://www.hotbazooka.com/privatejoe hope to hear some feedback/questions from you guys!
