tetris game implemented in love2d

A chance to better learn lua 5.1 and love2d.
Should run in windows/mac/linux and android. (virtual keys are displayed on top of the game).

dev deps (relevant for server-side dev and luacheck only)

mac

> brew install lua@5.1
> lua5.1
> brew install luarocks
> luarocks --lua-dir=/usr/local/opt/lua@5.1 install luacheck
> eval $(luarocks --lua-dir=/usr/local/opt/lua@5.1 path --bin)

windows

in an admin powershell do:

> choco install microsoft-build-tools
> choco install lua5.1
> choco install luarocks

in a visual c++ 2017 x86 native build tools command prompt with admin do:

> luarocks install luacheck

linux (ubuntu)

installed latest love2d with https://launchpad.net/~bartbes/+archive/ubuntu/love-stable

> sudo apt install love

then...

> sudo apt install lua5.1
> sudo apt install luarocks
> luarocks install luacheck

both

I recommend installing luacheck and vscode ext vscode-luacheck
