Overview

Simple tetris game made by pygame

Inspired by react-tetris

AI algorithm: Pierre Dellacherie (El-Tetris)

Screenshots

Play the Game

Install

pip3 install pytetris

Start

Run the following command in the environment which you installed the pytetris package or under the project folder:

python -m pytetris

or you can run the project in the project folder by

poetry run game

How to Play

In the home page, you can use ←→ or click the button to change to start level and use ↑↓ to change the start random line number.

• ↑ : Rotate the piece
• ←→ : Move the piece left or right
• ↓ : Speed up the piece
• SPACE : Drop down the piece
• P : Pause the game
• S : Mute control
• R : Reset the game (will loss current score)
• A : Make AI on or off

Pierre Dellacherie

Pierre Dellacherie is a one-piece algorithm.

Six main features:

Landing Height

The height where the piece is put. Top or center of the piece is both ok.

Example:

:white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::blue_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square:
:white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::blue_square::blue_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square:
:black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::blue_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square:

Height: 4 or 3

Eroded Piece Cells Metric

The number of rows eliminated × The number of the squares the piece contributed

Example:

:white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::blue_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square:
:white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::blue_square::blue_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square:
:black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::blue_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square:

Eliminated lines: 1

Contribute: 1

Eroded Piece Cells Metric: 1 × 1 = 1

Board Row Transitions

The total number of row transitions. A row transition occurs when an empty cell is adjacent to a filled cell on the same row and vice versa.

Tips: Both sides of the wall is concerned as filled.

Example:

:negative_squared_cross_mark::white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square::white_large_square::white_large_square::negative_squared_cross_mark:

Single Row Transitions: 6

Board Column Transitions

The total number of column transitions. A column transition occurs when an empty cell is adjacent to a filled cell on the same column and vice versa.

Tips: Both sides of the wall is concerned as filled.

Example:

:negative_squared_cross_mark:
:white_large_square:
:black_large_square:
:black_large_square:
:white_large_square:
:black_large_square:
:negative_squared_cross_mark:

Single Column Transitions: 4

Board Buried Holes

The total number of column holes. A hole is an empty cell that has at least one filled cell above it in the same column.

Example:

:white_large_square:
:black_large_square:
:black_large_square:
:white_large_square:
:black_large_square:

Single Column Holes: 1

Board Wells

The total number of column wells. A well is a succession of empty cells such that their left cells and right cells are both filled.

Tips: As long as there are filled cells on both sides, the empty cell is concerned as well.

Example:

:white_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::black_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square:
:black_large_square::white_large_square::black_large_square:

Wells: (1) + (1+2) = 4

Total

The evaluation function is a linear sum of all the above features. Bigger value will be better.

Feature	Weight
Landing Height	-4.500158825082766
Eroded Piece Cells Metric	3.4181268101392694
Board Row Transitions	-3.2178882868487753
Board Column Transitions	-3.2178882868487753
Board Buried Holes	-7.899265427351652
Board Wells	-3.3855972247263626

Priority

priority = 100 * moving_steps + rotation_times

We choose the action which priority is lower if there are two or more same evaluation actions.
