Back on the puzzle grind with today's daily in SerpenTIles :)

the ring is oddly satisfying, I should award extra points for that^^

Two very different sets for the daily challenge yesterday and today 🧠

How a game of SerpenTiles plays out: youtu.be/TD9YSMl3SOk?...

I recently added the first draft for music and still have quite some way to go with this project.
Follow me to learn more and see how it will turn out!

Here is a thread about nice patterns that are possible in #serpentiles :

this one is symmetrical along the diagonal from bottom left to top right ♻️

I took a week off on working on #gamedev and SerpenTiles to have proper vacation. That was nice - also a lot of #doom and #gloom happening in the world so take care y'all! 🫶

Hyped for a little sound meeting tomorrow, to give SerpenTiles some satisfying sfx and music 🎶

The last 90% are the hardest, all the little nicks that should make the game understandable and enjoyable to play :)

Here I want to give visual feedback of what you did (clicks), even when sound is turned off.

My daily puzzle game SerpenTiles won "Best Mobile Gameplay" on Reddit's recent hackathon! :)

Thanks to everyone who helped me bring this baby to life, with feedback, music and especially hammertime studio for connecting the game to reddits backend 🫶

I let the game run over night and had my pc suspended. Waking up to this.
I´d say this is art generated by my computer 😂

So let's try this again:

#serpentiles has a gif export, sadly you need to convert it into a mp4 atm
At midnight the daily seed changes, so this is a less intricate solution than yesterday (`s black screenshot 😅)

Working on a #gif export when sharing your score in #serpentiles

It deffo needs some bazzaz, but I feel like recording all placement and rotating moves for playback is a bit much (especially in longer games)

February 4, 2025 at 12:59 AM
ah yeah, symmetry 👅

today I squashed some bugs and introduced at least one more.
Now it doesn´t need much more to be released: hd audio, some presentational fluff for juice and maybe some of the "nice-to-have" feature(creep)s

The most optimal packed solution isn't always the highest scoring one. In this case the longer interwoven lines beat small circles even without achieving all 5 pink hexes. It depends on the tiles given each day.

376 points in today's daily :)

The unconnected blue line in the lower left urks me a little 😅

As a teen I played a tile laying game at my friends house, Tantrix. You could play it competitive or cooperative but you were quite limited by it being a physical game - SerpenTiles is inspired by this game, but turns it solitaire and up a notch.

So last summer, I did not do KNOSSOS 2, the next two shows and weekends I'll show KNOSSOS 1 (LevelUp & A1 eSorts Festival)
While my main project is SerpenTiles: ancientpixel.itch.io/serpentiles

and I have to battle the thought of doing KNOSSOS 2, this summer now 😅

First draft for the newest game mode for #serpentiles - you get 4 stations with two random colors on the board. Connect the stations with the least amount of tiles.

This serves as my starting point to do the "longest line" score mode, the algo will be the same :)

Not the most optimal, but the best I could do while being on the metro: ancientpixel.itch.io/serpentiles

Today's random daily puzzle is kinda beautiful 🤗
I am not sure if I found the highest scoring solution yet, but I like the symmetrical shape and 370 points is very good!

I can't wait to make that game publicly available :)

Come to my Ancient Pixel booth at KokoroKon in Schwechat, if you wanna also test my not so pixely, not so ancient game 🤗

This is a random seed run of 161 "chaos-colored" tiles. It's super hard to make a perfect cluster if the fitting tile just doesn't come up 😅
