X Project #4 ~ Tetris Remastered

Build your own Tetris game in Python using Pygame! Learn OOP, collision detection, and more in this hands-on project. Start coding fun today!

Welcome to this month's Project X! If you're looking to level up your Python skills while having a lot of fun, you're in the right place. This time, we're diving into game development by creating the ever timeless: Tetris.

We'll be using Pygame to build your own version from scratch. Not only is this project enjoyable, but it's also a great way to strengthen your understanding of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and data structures.

In our fourth edition, we check out Tetris! (Source Code at the bottom)

Some of you might be thinking, pshh that’s easy. I don’t need to build a silly game like Tetris, wrong! If I asked you right now to try it on your own, what would be your response to that?

Welcome to Project X – where dreams meet code! Dive into creativity as I guide you through the creation of a captivating project, step by step, in each monthly edition. From conceptualization to execution, Project X empowers you to master Python while unleashing your creativity.

I gaurentree that this project will not only teach you new concepts but also strengthen your understanding and ability to use two core programming concepts.

You’ll get the chance to learn Object-Oriented Programming in action while also using data structures to interact with components throughout this OOP style classic game!

It doesn't matter if you're a pro or just starting out; this project will be both challenging and exciting. You'll learn how to manage game states, handle user inputs, and create cool visuals. So, let's get started and make a game that's just as fun to create as it is to play!

Our past projects have been focused on app development surrounding specific frameworks, we’ve done two desktop applications using PyQt, SQL and more as well as a larger scale Flask CRUD application.

Today I want you all to take a breath, you’ll not only get the chance to relax and have boat loads of fun creating a game we all know and love, but you’ll also learn a fun game module while building on all your current skills!
