- This is the LINUX release. To get the windows version go to my website.
This game is a polished tetris clone featuring nice graphics, music and sound. With so many tetris clones, why choose Quack? That's easy - a cute little duck watches you play and quacks whenever you clear a line.

Information on the source
In the src/ directory you will find the game source. It is a single cpp file. To compile it you will need the allegro library. Please read the file COPYING before using the source code. If you make any interseting improvements to the game please tell me. The source code has lots of comments and should be easy to understand.
Bugs
- Sometimes, when a new level starts, a previous block will leave residue. - There are major memory leaks
