Title: Color My Heart v1.0 - A 'Flush' type puzzle game
Post by: Dav on September 06, 2018, 05:35:29 pm

I'm not much of a gamer, but was playing an online puzzle called 'Flush' and thought I'd make something like it for fun.  You basically use logic to color the squares to match the color of the hearts to complete the board. 15 levels in this version.  More instructions are in the source.  It's not a hard puzzle, but can be a nice diversion for some.  Screenshot below and source attached.

Cool! Thanks, I really liked the last one. Watch out Donald Foster. :)

The yellow and green hearts are pretty close in color for my eyes.

At first I thought this was piece of cake but 2nd puzzle got tricky fast enough!

Could benefit with _LIMIT 60 in main loop, save the fan.

I wonder if there isn't a perfect minimum number of clicks for each puzzle? score it like golf.

thanks Dav for this interesting game, however, I like the suggestion by bplus to add _LIMIT 60 in the main loop, CPU load went from 100% to 5%.
thank you bplus

Thanks! Yes, those are good suggestions.  I'll add _LIMIT in the next update for sure, along with sound effects and some more levels.

Thanks for trying out the game.

I thought I'd won, but it never went ahead. Is that not a victory?

My bad... didn't clear the white squares. Fun game, Dav!

For your next version I recommend PNG, as JPG is leaving too many artifacts behind in your images.

Thanks. Yes, I agree about the JPG's. I'll work on the graphics too.
