[ GAME ] Switcheroo
Switcheroo
Switcheroo is a new puzzle game I made in VScode!! It's also my first game post in a long time...
About
I made this game using nothing but google fonts and font awesome!! I really like how the usage of icons has really shaped this game. I'll explore more into later games ;) I also really like the transitions :D
One of my better projects, I really liked how dynamic this was!
How to play
Your goal is to make all the squares green. Click on a square to invert its whole row and column.
Can you solve this puzzle in only one move?
Answer: If you said row 1 column 4, you are correct! Because the whole row and column is inverted, the red L vanishes!
Hints
Some levels are a bit hard, so I will drop in some hints. The notation is (x,y)
. It denotes the position of the square to click on. Note: The puzzle doesn't get solved! It gets you to a state where you can hopefully figure it out on your own.
ONLY DO THESE WHEN YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE
Level | Process |
---|---|
4 | (1,1)(1,2)(1,3)(1,4) |
5 | (1,1)(1,4)(4,4) |
8 | (1,1)(2,2) |
10 | (2,3) |
11 | (2,3) |
12 | (1,1) |
17 | (3,3) |
20 | (1,1)(1,2) |
21 | (1,2)(2,2) |
25 | (2,2)(3,3) |
21 | (1,2)(2,2) |
21 | (1,2)(2,2) |
26 | (3,3)(2,2) |
34 | (1,4) |
35 | (1,1) |
Strategy
The trick is to click on all the tiles that are red at the very beginning. Then after you've clicked all those, repeat. Works every time ;)
