• Thread Race Conditions (When Dropping) Occasionally Cause:

  • Dropped Pieces Continuing to Fall Past the Stopping Point
  • Game Information Overlapping on the Game Board (Debug Info and/or Score)
  • Blocks That Complete A Row Don't Clear
  • Dropped Blocks Leave Artifacts
  • Pieces Breaking Through Boundaries
  • Game Will Clear More Rows Than Completed

• Rotation Occasionally Breaks Boundaries Resulting In Exception

• IPiece Rotation is Blocked at the Incorrect Position

This project is a console-based implementation of the classic game Tetris. The game is implemented in C# and uses a static class Game to manage the game state and handle user inputs.

Like the classic game, a single piece will generate at the top with a randomized x position, shape, color, and orientation. The generated piece will fall at a speed that increments with each completed row, the score will increment by 1 with each cleared block (10 per row).

• Up Arrow (↑): Rotates Piece Clockwise
• Down Arrow (↓): Drops Piece (Disables Movement)
• Left Arrow (←): Moves Piece Left 1 Unit
• Down Arrow (→): Moves Piece Right 1 Unit

This project includes a set of debug tools and settings found in the Utilities.cs file. This includes:

• Option to Disable Falling
• Option to Display Properties for Game, Board, Piece, or Blocks
• Option to Show Block Indexes

The project currently includes unit tests for:

• GridCoordinate Record and its conversion method.
• Drop Test to ensure pieces don't drop beneath the stopping point (currently not functioning).
