Request granted :) Lots of people wanted an endless mode, so it's in the works.
In fact, I'll be polling players on Discord soon about their expectations from that mode, since it's a little bit outside my usual design sensibilities (I believe strongly in time/resource limits for better, more "meaningful" gameplay).
Great to hear, thanks for the quick response! Whew!! I’d happily pay a little extra if that means getting a sandbox/endless mode. :D Extra bonus if it’s moddable so that other people can add new challenges.
Note: I, and some other people, don’t use Discord. So in case you’d like to cast a wider net for feedback maybe have other venues of communication? Here or in a survey or something…
Thanks for being so responsive! :)
Actually I’d be super happy with just the original game but with (1) sandbox/endless mode, (2) slightly larger map (maybe 20-30% bigger), and (3) a “Windows 3.1 Minesweeper” kind of option where I can choose a map size and the time/resource limits will scale with it when I’m not playing sandbox mode. This way I can customize my game to be shorter/longer depending on my wishes. And what I love most about the original game is the possibility to study and mod the source code. It is the ultimate in moddability! I would pay A LOT of extra money for this game if I can mod the source code directly.
