This is a classic Tetris game developed in Go, designed to run in a console environment. The project took about three hours to complete from scratch. This project has ~50% test coverage and can be used as a good starting point for further LLM exploration. It has own issues and flows that can be improved be senior developers. :) It was created as a fun project to showcase the capabilities of modern LLMs in generating code.
I’ve been using this approach for about a year (with my own prompts and tools), and recently, Harper Reed explained it quite well. I decided to showcase his method(prompts) with this project to demonstrate its potential to a wider audience.
Tetris has long been a popular choice for developers as a test project when exploring new programming languages, offering a perfect blend of complexity and enjoyment. Throughout my career, I've created approximately 20 different versions of Tetris, utilizing various languages. It is time of ChatGPT to create a new version of Tetris. :)

You need to have Go installed on your system. You can download it from the Go website.
Clone the repository: $ git clone https://github.com/plar/llm-tetris.git
Navigate to the project directory: $ cd llm-tetris
Run the game: $ go run .
Run the following commands in your terminal to build binaries for each target platform:
GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build -o tetris
GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -o tetris.exe
GOOS=darwin GOARCH=amd64 go build -o tetris
Run the game by executing the binary:
tetris.exe./tetris- Move Left: Left Arrow
- Move Right: Right Arrow
- Soft Drop: Down Arrow
- Rotate Clockwise: Up Arrow
- Hard Drop: Spacebar
- Pause: P
The game supports configuration through a JSON file config.json:
- Key remapping: Adjust the keys for game controls.
Upon the first run, a default config.json file will be generated if one doesn't exist.
High scores are stored in config.json and persist across game sessions.
