In the Knowing the State of a JavaFX Script Animation post I showed you the more succinct syntax for controlling animations. Now I'd like to show you some improvements to the TetrisJFX program that I've been developing in this blog, including switching to the new animation syntax. Here is a screenshot of the TetrisJFX game after the blocks stacked up to the top and the game is over.
By the way, Bruno Ghisi (a fellow Java Champion) and Lucas Torri have developed a Java Bluetooth Framework called Marge. Using that framework they developed a mobile phone game controller for this TetrisJFX program. You can see a video of this in action in one of Bruno's blog posts.
As you can see, I've added some functionality since the previous post, but here are some highlights:
- A preview area in the upper right corner that shows the next tetromino shape that will drop.
- Scoring is more Tetris-like, in that each tetromino is worth 25 points when it is finished dropping, and each row that fills up is worth 100 points. Full rows are removed from the playing field and the tetrominoes above are moved down.
- The button on the left toggles between Play and Stop. If you choose to Stop the game, "Game Over" will appear in the background, followed by which pressing Play will start a new game.
- When the tetrominoes stack up to the top, as shown in the sceenshot above, "Game Over" appears in the background and the game stops.
Here is the code for this version of TetrisJFX. Note that I've added a new class named TetrisNextShapeNode that shows the next tetromino shape to drop.
