EDIT: I dunno if that's a bug, but for me the entire game has inverted colors (I don't know for the pieces, though. Just everything else is inverted, such as white background and black text)

Myself, I'm a fan of Dark, so I took the screenshots in that mode.
That and highscores get wiped out if I accidentally open the code, but that's more an HP Prime bug (or annoying feature) than a game issue.
init_highscore()begin local temp="_tetrisHS:={{"Player1" 12345},{"Player2",234}};"; // make sure that you initialize properly; change list to whatever you use CAS(temp); // evaluates string inside temp as if done from CAS command line; creates _tetrisHS variableend;// get the n-th high scoreget_highscore(n)begin local temp="_tetrisHS(" + n ")"; iferr local score=CAS(temp); then init_highscore(); // make sure this runs properly or you end up with an infinite loop get_highscore(n); end; return(score); // return a list consisting of something like {"PlayerName" 1234} end;
Regarding the high score being reset, there is a way to do this but you will have to access the variable indirectly.Code: [Select]init_highscore()begin local temp="_tetrisHS:={{"Player1" 12345},{"Player2",234}};"; // make sure that you initialize properly; change list to whatever you use CAS(temp); // evaluates string inside temp as if done from CAS command line; creates _tetrisHS variableend;// get the n-th high scoreget_highscore(n)begin local temp="_tetrisHS(" + n ")"; iferr local score=CAS(temp); then init_highscore(); // make sure this runs properly or you end up with an infinite loop get_highscore(n); end; return(score); // return a list consisting of something like {"PlayerName" 1234} end;You can create a similar procedure for storing high scores. Indirection will not require you to have the variable initialized within your source code. Thus when you edit the source, the variable _tetrisHS will remain intact.
Question: Would you mind if at one point I modified this game to include more advanced graphics? I like this version in particular so I thought that spicing it up with sprites and such stuff as replacement to plain color squares would be nice.
