Hi.
I announced a braille version of a classic puzzle game here some time
ago. Back then, the implementation was in Haskell, and building the
program was relatively complicated for non-Haskellers... Besides, it
did only work on UNIX-like systems. I have since then found a way to
produce cross-platform binaries for text mode applications which work on
Linux, *BSDs, MacOS *and* Windows. A first alpha version of a
reimplementation of betris is now ready for first tests. On a Linux system,
you can simply do:
wget https://github.com/mlang/betris/releases/download/cosmo-alpha/betris.exe
chmod +x betris.exe
./betris.exe
to play the game. It should work on x86_64 *and* ARM64 architechtures.
Tested on a Raspberry Pi and my x86_64 laptop, as well as Windows 11.
The startup screen describes the gameplay very briefly.
If you try this, I'd love to hear from you. Drop me a mail with any
feedback you might have, positive, negative, neutral, I want it all.
