BASTET(6)BASTET(6)NAMEbastet - Tetris(r) clone with "bastard" block-choosing AI
SYNOPSISbastetDESCRIPTIONbastet (short for "bastard tetris") is a Tetris(r) clone which tries to
give you the worst possible block. Playing bastet can be a painful
experience, especially if you usually make "canyons" and wait for the
long I-shaped block.
USAGEbastet tries to conform as much as possible to the tetris guidelines.
We refer to those for the rules of the game. In the starting menu, you
can configure the key bindings; the default ones are:
DOWN moves the tetromino down (one single step)
LEFT moves the tetromino left
RIGHT moves the tetromino right
SPACE rotates CW
UP rotates CCW
ENTER drops the tetromino as far down as possible (hard drop)
P pauses the game
CTRL+C exits the game without any further prompt
PLAYING MODES
The game includes two playing modes. In the second one (harder), you do
not get the preview of the next tetromino, and the algorithm is modi‐
fied to take advantage of this.
