#112Awesome game! Really like the simple interface :) On a sidenote, anybody know how to solve level 29 in 11 moves? I got 12 but can't seem to figure out 11 move solution. Update: Got it now! @kuboble : Have you thought about having solutions/hints in case people are stuck?
Yes.
I'm not 100% sure it's the right thing, but I have deliberately decided against hints.
If you can't solve a level there is no penalty. You can skip up to 9 skipped levels and come back later to those which you find hard.

I see, also, what about a way to save the current state in a portable manner?
Usecase Scenario: If I clear my browser session, then I lose any progress I made and will have to start from beginning (since I cant jump to arbitrary level)

There isn't right now.
It's something I will probably add now that people actually play the game

#115Nice. Sokoban nostalgia says Hi :) Some nits and comments if I may. * Don't count moving stones as an actual move until the stone is released. I am on a PC and if I click-and-hold a stone and then move it back and forth, each move is counted even though I haven't released the mouse button yet. This is somewhat counter-intuitive and unexpected. * Put the light source at the top. You have it at the bottom and this resu…
Thanks a lot! I haven't expected more than few people seeing it. I'm absolutely excited that people like it and give great feedback. * the move is applied automatically the moment the done does stone_width/2 in a free direction. It would be tough to implement what you suggest. Also I did implement move counter the way you recommend - that if you make a move that cancels previous move it reduces the count but the test…
> * there is no light source. It's few simple 2d images.
suggestion: if you turn the images upside down (or turn 180 degrees), the light will come from top.
it's a fun game, thanks for sharing !
[EDIT] one minor remark, there seems to be a small graphical glitch: eg. on level one, the 3 squares on the right side (not the top and bottom one) appear to have wrong perspective.

#116This is very good - got me spending more time playing than I intended to and I will definitely share - well done. Maybe consider the wordle - one game a day/ share your score with your friends on social media approach - so your users stay hungry and don't waste too much time playing it!
Seconded! If you make it easy/fun to share I (personally) would totally do so :)
I shared it by copy pasting a link to my friends. It really doesn't need to be any easier.

Re: Show HN: Kuboble.com – Minimalistic sliding pieces puzzle game
#118Really fun game, was able to get the optimal solution of the first 37 levels, but level 38 really got me stumped! Been trying for maybe 10 minutes and can't even solve it no matter how many moves I do. What would also be a fun exercise to write like a solver script where you basically try to brute force every puzzle. I'm sure you can get the optimal solution very quickly at least in these 4x4 grid games and only 2 ba…
Did you solve it? I didn't.
Buy you can skip to the next level ;)

I'm sorry. I will add a color-blind friendly palette.
I have made a very quick-fix for colorblindness at https://kuboble.com/beta/ I'll try to come up with something better in the long term
I also had this experience, thank you for fixing it so quickly. The game is fun!

Looks like you've reverted the changes at some point today. Which is a definite productity win for me!
