Scoring

File:Integer.JPG
Integer passed
  • The current piece starts with an initial score value, which increases for each successive playing level. Each time you rotate the piece or move it horizontally, its score value decreases.
  • If you drop the piece, its score value increases proportionally to the distance it falls. Therefore, you can achieve the highest score per piece by immediately dropping the piece from the top of the playing area. (The lowest score per piece will result when you continually manipulate the piece until it lands on another piece or the bottom of the playing area)
  • Programers used integer variable to store points gaind by player, so in effect when you reach 32,767 your score goes to the beginig of variable (and that is -32,767).
