LOCKJAW 0.45
Tetromino Stacking Game for NDS & GBA

New version of Damian Yerrick's Tetromino Stacking Game for the Nintendo DS and GBA, LOCKJAW.

Spoiler: Changelog

* New unified speed curve system: less code, more tables, for
future loading from a file (bug 0040).
* All speed curves except Rhythm and Rhythm Zero have been ported
to the new system. Notably, Master has been rewritten based on
the tables from the wiki, and Exponential uses sections. The
lock delay speeds up as brutally after 600 pieces as always.
* Added kludge in the basic makefile that allows building on *BSD
and GNU/Linux: 'make linux' (patch by kesiev).
* ljpath: Fixed a couple misspellings in the non-Windows code path
(reported by kesiev).
* ljpath: Supports libfat when running on Nintendo DS.
* A few descriptions of options have been shortened to fit into
the new GBA/DS look (reported by Bloodstar; patch by caffeine).
* Writes result and options text to standard output as well as to
lj-scores.txt. This allows you to do 'lj | postprocessor' even
if you can't do 'tail -f lj-scores.txt' (requested by kesiev).
* DS: Writes result and options to /data/lockjaw/lj-scores.txt.

Glad to see another developer using the /DATA/ directory for data files. Definitely helps declutter the root of one's card.

Time to upgrade LockJaw I guess.

Way to go tepples

A Tetromino Stacking Game not to be confused in any way with a similar Russian Tetromino Stacking Game.

Looks a bit like tetris...

LOCKJAW? More like ROCKJAW. the score saving was my only gripe about this version of the soviet mind fuck.

Anyway, I remember it had a name that sounded like tetris before, but the official tetris police got fussy with him. So that was the end of it.

Wow, I didn't think it would be such a good program...

It used to be Tetanus if I remember correctly.

Was anything ever done with Lockjaw: The Overdose (Tetanus on Drugs)? That by far was my favorite tetrimino game.

To further add to the "list of connections between names" list, the name LockJaw was partially chosen as a replacement because its initials, LJ, are two tetromino pieces.

No clue. It's still available for the GBA obviously, but I don't think he ever ported it over to the DS.
