1/2 HexWord has four overlapping flower rings on a 2x2 hex grid, and each pair of adjacent rings shares two hexes between them. When you rotate one ring, two of the letters you move belong to a neighboring ring. hexword.mubergapps.com

My HexWord puzzle uses hex flowers and hex rings. A flower refers to the center hex and its 6 adjacent hexes, while a hex ring is just the 6 adjacent hexes without the center hex.

I am finding scaling the difficulty of these puzzles to be harder than I thought. Daily puzzles get harder every day of the week. https://hexword.mubergapps.com #HexWord #IndieGame #PuzzleGame #GameDev #IndieGameDev #WordGame #DailyPuzzle

Quoting Claude on What's App while working on OG for hexword. 🤣
``` Validated on opengraph.xyz post-deploy. WhatsApp complained about something (it always does), but the target platforms — Reddit, Discord, Bluesky — are fine.``` https://hexword.mubergapps.com

Man sharing on web to social is hard.
Current approach, copy image to clipboard and launch share url as normal. The paste the image.

Why is it that the last 20% (polish) of development takes 80% of the time.

2/2 Since every ring has neighbors on multiple sides, almost every move creates interference somewhere else on the board. It gives the puzzle a Rubik's cube feel where you can't solve one part without disturbing another. Playtesters found it fun.

If you've ever chased a lower move count on a Simon Tatham puzzle or a faster cube solve, HexWord has the same itch. Par is a target, not a pass or fail line, and the packs get genuinely hard. hexword.mubergapps.com/daily

Think Tank

At the wrong end of the paper

In my opinion

This is another issue where it appears that the printers called the shots for half of it

A devilish hexword

So as sin rises to +1, stickiness lags ring_spin and it feels sticky. As sin returns to 0, the ring spins freely. As sin falls to -1, stickiness lags ring_spin and it snaps home.

Full disclosure, this is an ad: HexWord isn't really a word game, whatever the name implies. Words are the win condition — the actual puzzle is spatial, rotating interlocking hex rings where every twist disturbs its neighbors. Closer to a 2D Rubik's cube. hexword.mubergapps.com/daily

I built HexWord alone, mostly because I wanted a puzzle to open with coffee that doesn't ask anything of me except ten minutes. No streak guilt if you miss a day. Just a board waiting when you're ready. hexword.mubergapps.com/daily
