Patternbee Solo | | |
English:
An Superb mind excising puzzle game.
Authors Description :
This is a Chinese child's puzzle of 6 asymmetric pieces, which form many suggestive animal shapes. Solving them is a nice mental exercise for ages 5-50. 38 puzzles are included (unzip all files into one directory), and you can make and share your own. I originally implemented it in 20 rules of KNP, with the elegant and hard parts being:
1) Moving, rotating, and dropping pieces with the mouse
2) 45 degree rotations which correctly aligned by pixel
3) Solution detector which admitted any correct configuration using parallel processing
4) Pre-storing 32 different puzzles in one object.
There was no drag and drop, so the pickup and putdown are done with a left click. Rotation by a right click, and "Flipping" done with the Enter key, or by colliding with a Mirror on screen.
I include the original puz32.gam file which loads now in TGF.
Because I was so roundly critized for my last game Onsteroids, I decided to update it with:
5) hybrid mouse/keyboard cursor control (difficult)
6) load arbitrary puzzle from file
7) create and save new puzzles to share!
8 ) best-time saved with each puzzle to create competitive challenge
9) secret powerful keyboard commands.
Patternbee solo is a very good mind excising puzzle game with good graphics, excellent game play and very good controls. This game is based on the original game called Tangram. I remember playing this game before but this version is superb example to play. Sometimes you look at the picture and put the shapes into place first time, then other times you will be scratching your head and thinking is this possible to do, this could be one of the oldest puzzle games around but it will still keep all Puzzle heads busy for a while. Download and play an original classic and enjoy.
Hold the shape over the mirror in the corner to reverse the shape.
