Double Cross - 1.02

Unlike your common unilateral falling block games, 'Double Cross' implements a bidirectional paradigm expanding the genre in both dimension and difficulty.

Overview:

Blocks fall from the top and fly in from the side settling in a joined "play area".  Deletions occur when rows of ten blocks are completed. A horizontal row of 10 will cause the blocks to fall down, and a vertical row of 10 will cause the blocks to "fall" to the right.  If a vertical row is completed during a vertical drop or a horizontal row is completed during a horizontal drop the corresponding deletion will not occur until the next turn.  This can and will lead to non-intuitive results.  Focus on the vertical alone and you will die from horizontal negligence and vice versa.

Controls:

P button pauses (music can be changed while paused)

Esc gives a quit prompt

Arrow keys for basic play (customizable in game)

There are many things I would do differently if I were to rewrite this game as I didn't understand anything about control flow at the time... Oh well, live and learn.
