Tetris – but every move is Morse code

🎯 Tetris – but every move is Morse code
Yes, really. I remapped Tetris to work using only Morse code. Every move, rotation, and drop had to be done using a one-button system — because keyboards are too easy, apparently.

In this episode of bad ideas gone too far, I built Morse Mapper: a single-button input system that turns dots and dashes into keyboard commands. The result is pure chaos... and somehow, kind of works.

💡 Why This Exists:
I wanted to know: Could I play a fast-paced game like Tetris using Morse code?
Spoiler: Yes. Should I have? Absolutely not.
Along the way, I dodged copyright traps, avoided smarter choices, and made a tool that turns any key into many.

🧪 Tech Used:

Morse Mapper: a one-button Morse code → keyboard app

XPadder: to simulate input mapping

Would you use Morse code to control a game?

I don't see why you couldn't make a Tetris variant. I mean, the market is full of them, the original game is 40 years old and ideas are free to use, despite what some people might claim.
