Tetrys

Tetrys is a minimalist Tetris clone written in Pygame. It began as a project to teach my girlfriend the basics of game development, using what I believe to be the easiest language for programming newbies to grasp: Python. This game is cross-platform compatible and has basic gamepad support (there is no way to configure what the buttons do; that is an exercise left to the reader).

Upon running the application you can press the N key to start a new game, and use the ← and → keys to move the current tetrad around the screen. The ↓ key accelerates the descent of the current piece, and Space drops it to the bottom of the well instantly. A small shadow tetrad at the bottom of the well indicates where the current tetrad will fall if left where it is.
