Sometimes with just one move I got 9 points (3x3), and other times I struggled to get 5. What I often thought would be nice; is to place temporary modifier on the tiles like \"unmovable row\/column\" or \"for next move this counts as green\/blue\/red\" but I understand that those ideas are cheap to write, and not so when you make a Compo game in 48h. Are you planning on working on it a bit more, or you consider it done?\n\nOverall quite enjoyable puzzle :thumbsup: \n\nNot very thematic, but I guess you know it, because otherwise you wouldn't opt out. \n","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld55\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/oatsbarley.itch.io\/ld-55","text":"Link"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/craigmjohnston\/ld55","text":"Link"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"94202","g_author":"1304164","g_event":"LD55","g_eventkey":"120","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"441137","g_title":"TERRIBLE TILES","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"196","g_commentcount":"12","g_site2_node_id":"390620","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"390620","n_urlkey":"441137","n_parent":"383062","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/55\/terrible-tiles","n_slug":"terrible-tiles","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"304164","n_created":"1713077845","n_modified":"1777573199","n_version":"1207482","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD55","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":1,"author":304164,"body":"![Screenshot 2024-04-14 at 19.10.33.png](\/\/\/raw\/424\/a4\/z\/61323.png)\n\nThis is a match-3 tile game where you have to match tiles on a 4x4 grid.
