Multi-player Tetris as an open web application

[Yoric]

Tetris is possibly the single most played game in history of video games. Tetrinet is a great extension of Tetris to multiplayer.

The objective of this project is to implement a multi-player Tetris comparable to Tetrinet as a mobile-enabled open web application.

A few key points:

• the application must be installable;
• single-player game must work without a connection;
• multi-player gaming will require some effort to keep it fast;
• multi-player games will require a server component;
• the application should work just as well on a cellphone screen and on a desktop screen – this may require some creativity on the cellphone, as it is often quite useful to see the current state of other players;
• the application should work both with the keyboard and with a touchscreen.

The game will certainly use Canvas (or WebGL) for the display and WebSockets for communication between players.
