Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Hey guys, it's been a minute since my last Tetris devlog. For those of you that are new here: Hi! Welcome! I'm making a Tetris clone of sorts completly from scratch without any game engines or libraries or anything of the sort, writing all the code and making all the assets myself. It's running on a custom-built engine I wrote (or rather, am writing) in C, using the Windows API for window creation and sound output and other low-level stuff.
Development has been going pretty smoothly since my last devlog. There's sound effects now! And new music! And new graphics! And pausing! And text rendering! And save files! And a lot of other things besides. I've spent a decent chunk of the time on behind the scenes stuff to just make the game run better basically. There's still a lot to do left but at this point the game has really started to come together. I'm really happy with it so far :3
You can find the GitHub repo here if you wanna compile it or just take a gander at the code or whatever. Please don't steal anything I will cry if you do and you don't want that on your conscious right? :(

So uhhh yeah. Here's another quick lil preview of my Tetris game that I've been working on. I built the game engine that it's running on from scratch in C without any libraries or some such (except the Windows API for opening the window and handling basic file stuff of course) so that's fun I guess. Right? Yeah. So anyways progress has been coming along surprisingly smoothly since my last update. There's finally some proper graphics! Yay! It's not finalised yet but y'know. It's something. I've been using Krita for the first time to make all the art assets and it's been really fun. Oh right, I'm meaning to make everything myself including art and music, not just the code. I've already started working on the score/level/lines UI code so that'll probably be done soon.
I've also finally made the GitHub repo public so if you wan't to take a look at the code or download it or whatever you can find it here. The repo isn't very user friendly yet but eh. Who cares.
That's all for now. Stay tuned :3
