Sliding Honey

Sliding Honey

Inspiration

I was inspired from a bee hive. I want to make different puzzle style. So, I make the puzzle that looks like a bee hive. I think it's harder to make puzzle that was not square grid. So, I want to challenge myself to build different puzzle grid. That's why I was inspired from the bee hive.

What it does

So, basically, this is like the common puzzle of moving tiles to win the game. To win this puzzle you need to move the bee to the corner of the puzzle by using the arrow tile. But beware, there will be obstacles that you will meet on this puzzle. It has three levels, easy, medium and hard. And each level has different obstacles.

How I built it

The project is built with flutter. Some of the codes were referenced based on simple puzzle code. And when it comes to hexagon tiles, I use the hexagon plug-in.

Challenges I ran into

Like I said before, there are challenges when you build puzzle with different grid style. Because you have to control the movement and it was different from the square grid where it's only move up, down, left, and right. When using hexagon grid, you have to make calculation to move the tile also with diagonal movement.

Accomplishments that I am proud of

This is my first flutter challenge and I'm still newbie, so I'm proud of myself that I can finished this project even my code was not in better structure yet.

What I learned

There are lot of things that I need to take care when building a software. But when it comes with flutter. It is more easier to implement it.

What's next for Sliding Honey

I want to improve the user interface and the user experience for the puzzle. Make it available on play store and app store. I want to make the puzzle more challenging. Also I want to make some App In Purchase later for the improvement.
