When possible, I like my projects to be unique, not something already in existence. So why did I make a Tetris variant when there are so many variants out there?
Everyone else were doing the same Tetris blocks (tetrominoes), or blocks with more squares. I decided to do the opposite, or at least, somewhat.
I chose to make my Tetris variant with blocks of only three squares. I introduced what can be called a half square.
HTML and CSS allow for levels of transparency. I chose my half squares to be half transparent.
Two transparent squares would make one solid one. I wrote a prototype and was pleased with the playability. I fleshed it out and Trestris the Tetris with blocks of three squares was born.
Method: HTML, CSS, Javascript
