did you download java specifically. I believe java vm doesn't come with IE anymore because Sun sued the crap out of MS so the MS java virutal machine doesn't exist anymore.

ie 6 doesn't come w/ java, iirc.
 
Very nice. You should rotate with the arrows too instead of z and x. Or make a key config.

haha what do you mean? like when you complete a line? or rotating pieces? I am an amateur...
 
Use Excelsior's JET tool to compile the project into a single exe file and you're all set. No need to setup java environments on target user's computer
 
works for me. xp running ie.

i agree about the up and down arrow changes. as well as making the "drop piece" more of a varient...like being able to hit it for a while and let go back to normal speed.
but its great as it is!

okay I just did the up key to rotate, I don't understand what you want for the down key... right now it speeds up the drop speed when pressed, and spacebar is to complete drop the piece.... I'll change the instructions at the bottom of the page now.
