0.0.6 - Post Jam Updates
Version 0.0.6 Update
In my last post I discussed refactoring the game so that it would be easier to update and that I would hopefully have a new version out soon. Well, today is the day!
Updates
Behind the scenes the game now fully utilises separate handlers for each phase, this makes the code quite a bit cleaner and easier to manage, though I think it can still be improved.
Touch controls - The game now has rudimentary touch controls, ugly and a little clunky but they should work well enough.
Moving towards a theme. In this regard I updated the artwork on the tiles and added a somewhat "thematic" background.
Highlighting - Tiles now show a slight highlight when selected (pink) and when they are subject to daisy chaining (orange).
Moving daisy chained tiles is now a manual operation, allowing players to choose the order that they are moved
Future Updates
Refinements to game mechanics. I have had a couple of suggestions for improving the game, including removing the two phases in favour of a combined single phase and I would like to experiment with this.
Android version. I had a request for an Android version and I am working towards this with the touch controls but it's not fully ready yet.
As I mentioned in the previous post, I am hoping to work on a much improved tutorial.
I need to work on the AI a little. I think it should be a little improved since the last update but honestly I kind of forgot to check.
Known Bugs
There is an issue with daisy chaining that I can't QUITE work out yet, sometimes the game get stuck in a state where a tile accidentally triggers a second daisy chain and then breaks the game. I think this is something to do with selecting the tile between phases but this needs verifying and fixing.
There is a minor visual bug where all pawns (of the same type) appear selected.
Feedback
Please try the game and report any bugs or suggestions for improvements.
I'm largely working on this game during streams though I can't help working on it outside from time to time. This is more of a hobby project at the moment.
