Notes

The most common grid size is 7 wide, 6 high, with 4 in a row to win. This program does support arbitrary sizes, however.

The window size will be scaled proportional to the width and height of the grid. Each piece is 64x64 px

Small grids may cause the ending graphic to be cut off or displayed funny.
