A a side project that I started on February 2019 with the intention of exploring JavaFX capabilities, transformed into this game full of GUI effects. I am planning on expanding its features to make it a game worth shipping with any new OS.
Both modes offer the following options:
- Start a new game.
- Select the number of tiles per row - between 2 & 18.
- Shuffle without increasing your moves' count.
- Peek - get a preview of the puzzle's solution.
- Exit game.
Normal Mode:
- Numbered tiles (in ascending order) with solid background.
Picture Mode:
- Upload a picture.
- Use default picture.
Future releases will include:
- Incorporation of timer to various game modes.
- A game mode that replaces the tile's numbers with letters (in natural order). or symbols. Which adds the challenge of memorizing the initial places.
- Support for levels and different difficulties.
- A game mode that:
- Offers puzzles that aren't ordered in natural order.
- Offers levels that mix the board with different types of tiles.
- Support for powerups.
For instance:
- Get 1 tile to its correct position - while maintaining puzzle's solvability.
- Get x seconds of "Peek" feature.
- Convert a selected tile to an empty space.
