Technical Information

Pete-tris was written in C# and uses GDI+ for all drawing. It was created as a test game (Tetris is the "hello world" of game programming) so that I might work on my graphics and game development skills. The score upload facility is a simple C# web service called from the windows forms client.  The scores are then displayed on this page using a web user control that dynamically builds the grids based on the results of the stored procedures.
