The implementation is available in the pygsear-games distribution. You'd need pygsear also, to play the game. http://www.nongnu.org/pygsear/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I wouldn't rely on the graphics library at all but create a "model" of the game that's completely independent from the graphics. I think a two dimensional structure with lists of lists is the simplest solution. Ciao, Marc 'BlackJack' Rintsch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Pygame Help
Hi, I am trying to make a game using either livewires or pygame. The game is tetris. Right now I have gotten the program to a point where everything works (as in user input, score, lines, etc), except I can't get more than one block to work. Right now I have the user playing a game where a single block falls at a time instead of one of the seven different patterns. I was curious how you would program the seperate images to fall together and not break apart, because pygame and livewires uses images as collision detection, so therefore you can't make most of the shapes a single image because they will have transparent spaces as part of the image, which will make floating shapes and such. --Thanks --Andrew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
