Installation

  • Copy the pyTetris folder from the archive to the root (base folder) of the SD card.
  • Pygame needs to be installed on the SD card for the game to run.
  • To store the game in a different directory on the SD card, the file pyTetris.gpe needs to be edited. See the section below.

  • Joystick - Left, right, down
  • START - Pause
  • SELECT - Back to GP2X menu

Modifiying pyTetris.gpe

pyTetris.gpe is a script (plain text file) that runs the game.You'll need to edit it if you want to run the game from a folder other than the root (base folder) of the SD card.

To run the game from Games\pyTetris, for example, open the pyTetris.gpe file in notepad (or a similar text editor, but not Microsoft Word or any similar word processor) and edit the line

cd /mnt/sd/pyTetris

and change it to

cd /mnt/sd/Games/pyTetris

The code is case sensitive so it is important that the directory name is exactly as it is on the SD card.
