Color Flood is an perfect-information strategy game where the player's goal is to flood the board with a single color. Starting from the top left corner, the player clicks tiles on the board and changes the current color of the "flood" as it infects the map. The fewer the turns the better!
Users will be able to:
-
Start and restart games
-
Track the number of moves
-
Click handler on every tile for color change
-
Select how many colors to use
Games will be randomly seeded.
This single-page app will consist of a grid map, clickable tiles and a counter tracking moves made.
