Be aware of the fact that you have to change the ProcessInputs{} func (and main) a little bit.
On Amiga, retrieving keyboard input is a different story once you try to do this by yourself, means hardware banging. Blitz (Amiga) offers this way as well, while Blitz (PC) seems to handle keyboards more abstract.
While this Tetris conversion is system friendly, we have to use the system way, which is widely supported by Blitz: Window Events (thats why i added a backdrop window in the first place).
