I briefly discussed this issue on IRC yesterday and the end result is that I'm not really sure what to suggest. I suspect that it may be something to do with the gfx card but you'll not really want to hear that.

Could somebody else with the same card post their CPU usage while playing My Tetris?

Cheers,
Smirnoff.

Hi,
I tried to play Tetris but unfortunately it is impossible to use with just a touchscreen/mouse.
Any plans on putting some buttons on that page (left, right, turn left, turn right, down)?
Would be great!
cheers

I think it would look better if the game area were split into zones, tap the left of the area and you move left, tap bottom to drop and middle to rotate? It's also one less thing for the skinners to have to deal with and its less work for me ;).

Would controlling the game this way be pretty intuitive to a touchscreen user?

I know this would be at the bottom of your to-do list but would it be possible to add some code to populate GUIPropertyManager with some data about the game (maybe current score, etc). Then I can display this on an LCD.

The plugin already sends this information to GUIPropertyManager. The properties are as follows:

Code:
#tetris_score
#tetris_lines
#tetris_level
#tetris_highscore

Cheers,
Smirnoff.

Thanks for the links. I've already written the code to search torrentspy but haven't got around to putting it into a plugin. I'm going to have a look to see if Sam's Online Content plugin will save me any work.

* edit *

mininova has a super fast search so this might give me a bit more inspiration.
