Great idea. My only complaint is that there seemed to be a few levels where it wouldn't accept all the possible ways of forming 100.
Thanks for your valuable feedback. Could you please further explain the problem? When you said "ways of forming a 100", you meant diagonally/L shape? Or are you referring to some levels only accepting either a vertical or horizontal solution?
Thanks again for playing!
It seemed like some levels weren't accepting legitimate horizontal 100s (or that the 0s couldn't be exchanged). Maybe vertical too; I don't recall for certain.
If I'm not misunderstanding you, that's an intended design decision. The puzzle it's not just to form a 100, but to form a 100 and making it to the exit. Some levels were designed with that premise: tricking the player into forming a 100 in a way that makes the exit unreachable.
No, that's not what I meant. The exit was reachable, but it arbitrarily wouldn't accept certain 100s.
Muy chulo! Si sacáis más niveles quiero jugarlos, me encantan este tipo de juegos!
puzzle muy inteligente, me ha gustado mucho, algunos cuesta pensar. Me he quedado con ganas de más niveles. Hasta el 16 done :3
