About the fast drop, you're right, it should stop dropping after the key is released.

About it being a full screen application, well, I simply wanted to make a tetris-clone just to see if I could do it. All the docs I read talked exclusively about full screen applications of DX, so I implemented this in full screen to avoid all the hassels that come with a window.

This was programmed in C/C++ with MS Visual C++ 6.0. Check out the "Some extra info" section on the web page, I talk more about this there.

Thanks for trying the game, I really appreciate your comments!
