Already Solved First Look - 2023 is the year of the reverse puzzle game, and this one manages to be distinct from Veggie Quest, but incredibly fun in its own right. This might be even cooler since it asks for an extremely specific solution, rather than the longest possible.

Dev here, thanks for the video! ...and also for showing me that adding the red line would be a good idea. I was worried that it might get confusing when the path crosses itself multiple times, but according to the feedback from the comments, I'll have to somehow make it work.

@eragon78 8 ай бұрын

Just a potential idea, but maybe the line can change color as it goes along its path? That would help you differentiate between the path thats later on and earlier on. So like, it shifts from Yellow to Orange to Red or something as it progresses so you can see your progress as you move along it. Or maybe just show the paths adjacent to each other. So if you double back, the lines dont overlap, but instead are next to each other. Seems like a tricky problem to solve without it potentially getting confusing, but even at the worst case, just a line that even can overlap itself is still better than nothing.

@nandanthony 8 ай бұрын

I think you could either make the line change gradually like a gradient rainbow, so you can see which section is the bluest etc, Or add like an animating line or light that basically light up in order to the exit, like in airplanes lmao Or maybe just arrows or accepting the confusing crossover, and hoping the step by step playback you have works well enough lol Anyways, the line would be SUPER helpful, but the one thing that was iffy about it in the video is that it made height changes a bit unclear, but yknow thats because its in video editing

@cymerdown 8 ай бұрын

Great work stumping Tyler a little, pretty rare feat! I do think the line would be great, even if the earlier part fades out during a longer walk that doubles back on itself or something.

@martinescobar3908 8 ай бұрын

Use the Scratch method Do{ Trail (show) } While [test=1] And you just paint the line and make it show while on test, since you're already making the trail that the asset most follow and creating the puzzle, it would be another pre-created part of the game, also, you could put another conditional to add the possiblity of grading difficulty, so the line, a quality of life upgrade that makes the game easier, only shows on normal or lower difficulty: If [difficulty>2] { Do{ Trail (show) } While [test=1] }

@texasranger7687 8 ай бұрын

Best example at 15:48. With both line AND your little example guy, it work fine. After, I did not saw after if you have to go back 10 times XD but up to 4 or 5 could be fine. You can even put little number on line like on subway map.

14:22 Depth-first search is actually an algorithm in graph theory used by computers to traverse graph data structures! One simple application for example is to solve mazes. Basically, the algorithm first finds a path by visiting some vertices in a certain order until it is no longer possible to visit adjacent vertices, and then backtracks to previously visited vertices to see if there are any adjacent vertices that weren't visited yet. This way the algorithm ensures all the vertices are visited! You can see it in this puzzle, where the little guy first visited the north tile, then backtracked to the center, then visited the west tile and backtracked, etc. until all the squares were visited. Thank you for taking your time to read this, I am a big fan of graph theory 😊

The 11:00 didn't need the wall before the button, having up walls completely block the path after the button is enough to make doubling back just a worthless move for the player, and then you just need down walls to block the exit as you were doing from the start.

However it doesn't show it visually very clearly. So if the intended solution is invalid, it doesn't bother running the pathfinder at all, and instead shows you how much of the intended solution it can use.
