is there a reason that the Custom Levels are saved as they are? (i.e twice as large as the actual bitmap data because there’s a 0 between every pixel?)
Why thank you s9pp75v.png (176×186) (imgur.com)
The second digit for each square is a color code, there was a palette of colors on the right side of the creator. It was supposed to show that final color image on the main menu when solved. It worked, but I thought it was really ugly so I just made everything monochrome in the end, and everything is coded as the default 0 black/grey. Technically each square is still tracking its proper color if you were to manually change the string, but it won't display it.
Very fun! I really loved the 4x4 grid as it really changed it up from normal picross imo.
literally just picross, but also I love picross :3c the only real change is the 4x4 grid of 4x4 which made me have to think a little different cuz i'm used to 5x5. either way still fun time!
pretty fun like those mobile games
Nice puzzle
I LOVE picross puzzles! I have only played the first two puzzles right now but I'm definitely gonna finish all of them :) Great game! This might already be in the game and I missed it, but the only thing I would suggest is letting the player know a right-click xs out the square bc I figured it out by chance.
Bonus puzzle (use the "Custom" button the main menu, then paste this code in): 161600101010101000100010101000100000001000100010000000100010000000000010000000100010001000100010000000100000001000100010001000100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010001010100010101010100000000000100010001000100010001000000010001000101010001000000010000000101010000000100010000000100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
