jriquelme / qbos

a simple tetris clone

qbos

QBOS is a simple tetris clon I made in my free time, when I was young and innocent (I publish this just to "not forget" :p)

INSTALL

Windows

There's a setup.exe in http://games.softpedia.com/get/Freeware-Games/Qbos.shtml

Linux

To compile this, you need SDL, SDL_image and SDL_ttf. In Ubuntu you have to install:

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev \
libsdl1.2-dev

Then, proceed with the usual spell:

$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

KNOWN BUGS

• The movement of the blocks is a bit odd, you can't rotate a block when his resulting place will be out of the screen, that's why sometimes when a block is next to the borders it can't be rotated.

• Sometimes, the blocks can be moved after hitting the ground; this behavior is completely random xD.

• The Options screen permits the association of one key to two different movements without any error message.

• There isn't any validation in the input fields :o
