Recently I have finished my first bigger Android project. I made a little Tetris App.

Here is a picture of my app in emulator:

enter image description here

My Tetris has following functions:

  1. fast drop down
  2. play tetris music
  3. start/pause button
  4. Gameover Screen
  5. View which shows next Piece
  6. "Levels" if you reach a particular score, level will be increase and pieces drops faster down
  7. saving and loading highscore

I post the most important part of my code, if you need more code please see my git repo(https://github.com/Linus1905/Android-Tetris).

    \$\begingroup\$ just give it time. Some reviews take more time to write. Larger questions take longer to read and understand. Although with that much code more explaination of what is happening in the code would facilitate a faster/better response. \$\endgroup\$

Good job separating concerns

Your tetris game-board model, piece and UI code is nicely separated in classes, so each one has its own responibility. Well done!

Don't use magic values, use Enum

 public Piece(int f)

This switches on a magic value of f. Piece is a excellent candidate for Enum!

 public enum Piece {  L, J, T, Z, I, ... }

Enum works as class as well, so you can add a constructor:

 public Piece ( int x1, int y1, int x2, .... )

Then the enum becomes:

 public enum Piece {

     L (0,7,0,8....);
     J (....)
 }

Your gameBoard can store which type of Piece it contains:

private Piece gameBoard[][]=new Piece[boardHeight][boardWidth];

The color of a Piece could also be stored in the Piece itself, so you don't need magic lookup methods.

Use Java naming conventions

For example, take a look here: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/java-naming-conventions/

This method turn_AroundX1 should be called turnAroundX1

Don't duplicate booleans.

 if(tmp==4) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;

If tmp = 4, the code is: 

  if(true) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;

Better to rewrite to:

return (tmp == 4);

Use proper variable names & simplest interface as possible.

I saw this:

ArrayList<Integer> arrayList = new ArrayList<Integer>();

What does this 'arrayList' contain? That would be a better variable name.

Also, the rest of the code doesn't care how the List is implemented, as long as it behaves like a list. It is best practice to write:

List<Integer> listOfAwesomeThings = new ArrayList<Integer>();

  • \$\begingroup\$ just a sidehint, the use of enums in android is(or at least used to be) discouraged, for it takes up so much memory \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @AHoneyBustard do you have a source for this? Enum is just a class, and an instance is just an instance. \$\endgroup\$

Do something about the code formatting (intendation) in this question. The code reads really awful.

Review of Piece

  • Piece has an instance variable of the same type, which is stored through the copy constructor, but unused in the class.
  • Many variables belong together x1, y1 etc.. Consider creating a class EuclidPoint which groups and x and y value. You can offset some arithmic and euclidean operations in this class. For instance move, rotate, reflect, invert, and also variants specifically for x or y.
  • Use common names for your operations. turnAround is a rotation around a point (I think) so use rotate instead.
  • getMinXCoordinate could be made more extensible and usable if it would allow a dynamic number of values or an array, instead of int x1, int x2, int x3, int x4. It should also be called getMinCoordinate, why specific for x?
  • the constructor Piece(int f) should be extracted to a class named PieceFactory. This to avoid convolution of specific shapes with the general intend of the class.
