Reddicross

Inspiration

I played many Nintendo's Picross game in the past and I like their simplicity

What it does

This game lets you play picross/nonogram puzzles in Reddit

How we built it

I used Phaser and the repo https://github.com/sir-axolotl-alot/devvit-webview-pixi as a scaffolding (I changed Pixi to Phaser). I also used the repo https://github.com/monkeyArms/nonogram to add all the nonogram logic to the game (random creation of puzzles, check if it has more than one solution and check if the puzzle is solved).

Challenges we ran into

I struggled with making the game attractive.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I always wanted an excuse to make a Picross game and I finally made it.

What we learned

I relearned Phaser and learned redis. It's kind of nice to have a leaderboard functionality ingrained in a database, haha.

What's next for Reddicross

If people like the game I can try to make it more visually appealing.
