bastet

NAME

bastet - any falling bricks game clone with "bastard" block-choosing AI

SYNOPSIS

bastet

DESCRIPTION

bastet (short for "bastard falling bricks game") is a any falling bricks game 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.

USAGE

bastet tries to conform as much as possible to the falling bricks game 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 modified to take advantage of this.

FILES

$(HOME)/.bastetscores User-specific high scores file (used only if the system high scores file is unavailable)
