Goal - Make something that works!
Nothing fancy, nothing creative...just trying to implement something that already exists. I got all excited about the hexagon idea before I realized that it's actually already been done...but oh well.

Step 1: Implement Regular Tetris:
This seems like the easiest possible first step, because rectangles are easy to deal with. So, goal #1 is to make this work (and learn a bit about game balance along the way).

Step 2: Implement Hextris:

The hexagon grid will provide a bit more of an implementation challenge, and I'll have the opportunity to explore different shapes (if I manage to get around to it). The basic game loop and user input stays exactly the same.
