CashDrop puzzle game made on a rainy day

[Dav]

Stuck inside today.  Decided to code a little again.

Here's a simple puzzle game.  Click on groups of colors to remove them and drop the coins down.   Goal is to drop 10 coins to the bottom before the moves run out (100 move limit).

Edit:  New version with updated colors (read thread...)

Nice! It was not easy as I had assumed... lol

Yea! another puzzle by Dav!

I haven't tried yet but looks like it might be variation of Click-O-Mania (I forgot your name for puzzle) you click a color and all pieces disappear and pieces above fall and shift left (or right) if bottom row had same color too. You had to be careful isolating clumps on bottom row... anyway I have something for a rainy day, thanks!

Update:
OK a quick test, yes it's a variation on Click-O-Mania (an older game you did) with a Cha-Ching! ;-))

Also I am having trouble distinguishing high green and yellow bottom right two

You are 100% correct, bplus - I was playing around with that older game code and felt it needed something else.

Hmm, I will redo the colors to make them them stand out better.  I'll post an update.

Thanks for trying it out!

UPDATE:  How about this?  I made the yellow image more yellowy.  Replace the old 1.png with this one.  Hope it's not worse -- on my laptop the colors stand out ok..

UPDATE 2: I just remembered you corrected some colors for a puzzle I did a while back that had this same problem,  I'll dig it up and copy those ...

@Dav

For real Green I always liked _RGB32(0, 128, 0) ' darker like grass green and gets away from yellow, that new yellow of yours would help a little.

[Dav]

Good idea.  Here's the green redone.  I've repackaged the .zip with the colors corrected.  Thanks for your input!

Thankyou @Dav 

Man my computer gets really funky when Windows has an Update loaded up. I can't do anything on forums because the delay is s o  l  o   n    g... so I shut down browser and started update. I went and painted back garage door while waiting, came back and still freak'in updating.

Rainy days and Windows Updates have your Todo lists ready for when they come, also you will have to wait twice as long at docs office if you didn't bring anything todo. This game would be perfect for then!

You guys are moving closer to a Steve(tm) Certified Color Scheme all the time.  LOL!

Folks have been known to complain over the vibrant differences in how I color stuff, but I got in a habit years ago of using high-contrast colors.  My daughter isn’t fully colorblind, but she’s “color-weak” with colors blending together and getting muddled up for her, so I tend to program with that in mind anymore.
