Show HN: Quadiq – A Simple, Relaxing, Strategy Game

7 pointsby jessehorneover 5 years ago
I&#x27;m making this post before I go to bed. I&#x27;ll check comments tomorrow if there are any to check! I just wanted to show off a simple game I built somewhat inspired by Hexiq and similar games. It&#x27;s called Quadiq. You can play it at the link below. Let me know what you think! What does it need? How can it be better?<p>http:&#x2F;&#x2F;quadiq.binarycocoa.com&#x2F;

A few thoughts:<p>-I would&#x27;ve liked to be able to undo a turn, willing to even give a significant amount of earned points for it<p>-After some time playing, it got really boring since you really just get the hang of it and don&#x27;t need to think anymore. I mean that&#x27;s really the point of the game is to relax right? I&#x27;m not saying to make it harder, but maybe you can think of some things to make it more engaging. Maybe more points for certain patterns like completing blocks in a certain color order. Basically it got really boring doing the same thing and getting the same rate of points. There is no sense of exponential gain for becoming better and more efficient at the game. But that may be the goal after all, to be relaxing.<p>EDIT:<p>Additionally, this game is simple enough to have keyboard navigation. Move with arrows, wasd, or hjkl and space as the action button. For fast typists like me, I would&#x27;ve found that to be very pleasurable.

Great game! It definitely needs a way to go 1 step back.
