Time Waster Game I Created (1 Viewer)

[Steeler]

Sliderga.me is a simple game I created to learn a Java script framework called AngularJS. This is the first iteration so it's pretty basic in terms of the look and feel, but the game mechanics should work well.

Feedback is always appreciated.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

Yes definitely basic, but better than I could do.

Well, there goes my afternoon. Addicting game. Is the source published anywhere (GitHub?), I'm working with Angular right now and still learning it, and while I have a pretty decent idea how I'd go about doing something like that, I'd love to see how that compares to your implementation.

Nice. I like this.

After I played about five games of 3x3 I started to get the hang of it and consistently finished in around 40 moves.

My first attempt at 4x4 finished in 238 moves, but that should be easy to greatly improve on.

5x5 = 1067 moves

3x3 @ 22

4x4 @ 226

Great implementation of a classic.

If it's something that can be programmed, Other games I've played like this let you move a whole row as 1 move.

5x5 @224

Neat game. One thing for me is that the WASD and arrow keys seem to be reversed, ie I have to push down to go up, etc. Playing in a Firefox window.

Never mind. RTFM. Moves the empty space. Now I get it.

I don't have it on GitHub or anywhere else that is easily accessible, but I'll share the code if you send an email address via PM.

Does that navigation make sense? I tried it both ways and it seemed better to have the arrow keys always moving the same thing (the empty space) rather than those keys moving different things (cells adjacent to the empty space).

It made perfect sense once I actually read the instructions. Some people may not do that, though. I was still able to play fine, so it's not a big deal.

9X9 in 3594 moves

On mobile:

3x3 - 15 (pretty sure I got a lucky layout, closest since is mid to late 20s)

4x4 - 93

5x5 - 310

6x6 - 786 (I always get stuck on the last two rows)

Haven't had time for the bigger ones yet

Got my 5x5 score down to 250 even. I don't think I can beat that.

6x6: Did it in 624 moves.

Brought this down to 503.

Suggestions:

-Add a high score leaderboard thing

-Make it so if I have ABCDXF where X is the space... right now I'd have to click D or F. But it'd be nice if I could click B and then it moves to AXBCDF

3x3 in 32. Don't have the patience today to attempt the larger ones but I will come back when I can.

Thanks for creating and sharing.
