Installation

I have not packaged this game. To use it, you can clone it.

git clone https://github.com/jonahkraft/tetris.git

Then use the following commands to start the game.

cd tetris
python3 main.py

The game itself does not have any dependencies outside Python's standard library.
You can create an alias to play it from anywhere. Just add

alias tetris="python3 ~/path/to/tetris/main.py"

to your .bashrc or .zshrc file. Use tetris to start the game.

Preview

I am using FiraCode Nerd Font in this preview. Depending on your Terminal Emulator and Terminal Font, this might look different.
