Looked into the code, and somehow felt a strong smell of C++ :) Looks nice!

If the pieces rotated counterclockwise, it would be perfect! Luckily I could easily change a boolean to make it so. :) I noticed the Mandelbrot in your header. You might want to take a look at <a href='http://nedbatchelder.com/code/aptus' rel="nofollow">Aptus</a>. Very nice. If the pieces rotated counterclockwise, it would be perfect!

For the graphics libs, try googling for sites that archive old software - by using appropriate keywords. Then search on those sites for the libs. Might get it. - Vasudev Ram www.dancingbison.com Sounds cool.

I recall the QuickBasic example, but somehow I've never connected to Basic and its kin so I didn't play with it too much. I'm enough of a hoarder to have kept all those old programs, by the way. My "snake" clone is called Worm, written circa May 1999. It's OO C++ (!!) Now, if I could just make it run... (it uses Borland's old graphics libs I can't find) Actually, my snake was in Borland C++.

I think we all played around with Snake at the time :) My experience was taking the QBasic code and modifying it to the extreme.
