New features:

  • The game is now controllable with the mouse, by clicking the square you want to move to
  • The editor is now controllable with the keyboard, using keyboard shortcuts on the menus and a new cursor which can select squares with the arrow keys
    • Both are fully controllable using either mouse or keyboard, with one exception: in the editor, you need to use the keyboard to type in the name of a new levelpack and the new size for a level. In future, an onscreen keyboard could allow using the mouse for these too.
  • More readable graphics for menus in the editor
  • Option to playtest a level directly from the editor
  • Toggleable indicator in the corner of the editor shows whether a level is possible or not. Green means possible, red means impossible, and grey means uncertain.
    • Press once to turn it on, and again to start writing the number of solutions on top.
    • If there are too many empty cells, it will not work, to avoid excessive lag.
  • One new playable level, bringing the total to eight
  • Updates to make existing levels more visually distinct.

Bug fixes:

  • The editor will no longer save redundant data specifying a square is empty
  • When resizing a floor, entering nothing or something that isn't a number will no longer cause a crash
    • Entering zero, a very large number, or a negative number is no longer allowed

The web build

The game is now available to play online at [https://halfoftwobiscuits.github.io/painter/].
This doesn't currently include the editor. I will add the editor soon, with an option to download and upload your levelpack files. After that, I'll probably take a break from this project.
