[casual_games] Res: Res: Use of keyboard on casual games

[Elliot Curtis]

There are obviously a number of ways to do Tetris on a mouse, depending on
how clever you want to be.
The piece falling would have an outline of itself at the bottom to show
where it is going to land. Moving the mouse left and right will steer the
piece. Clicking on the piece would make it rotate. Clicking on the outline
will make it drop.
OR you could go round and round on the mouse clockwise or anticlockwise to
rotate and press the button to drop. Probably a silly idea but you could try
it!...

Hi, Ricky.

Think on Tetris, just as a sample of my game mechanics.

How the mouse could be used in a confortable way to the user?
