It'l be up soon i hope :D Still needs alot of tweaking, but i figure i'll release it to get some opinions on what needs bettering.

Anyhow, i have a major social studies paper due tomorrow which i havent even started half my research. Fun. And i probably wont start untill later :/

Well, whatever. I'll have to change the name to something other than "Tetris" for the final release. Believe it or not, "The Tetris Company"'s only intellectual property claim is the trademark of the name "Tetris", yet they excersise a ton of power over those who publish such games. Kinda odd. They also sued another company which was making a similar game called "Quinn". The suit never would have held up in court, but the victim company just didnt have the legal funds to defend itself, and had to drop the game. Stupid shit like that pisses me off.
