Hexplosions

Hexplosions, at its heart, is a match 3 puzzle game but with strategic planning, you can work towards a high score worthy of our global leaderboards.

This game is a pure development build right now and as such will likely not function correctly or have all features included. Posted here for feedback purposes and for general discussion whilst I build.

I have added some effects, particles and post-processing but ALL of this will likely be changed before release as I just added some temporary ones in to get a feel for the game.

Track my progress building this game on my YouTube channel.

I am aware of bugs and missing features but please do comment and let me know your findings anyway as it will help me to not miss anything.

Bugs I am currently aware of (I'll try and keep this up-to-date)

  • Purple and Pink are very similar with post-processing so need to rethink the colour. - Fixed
  • Sometimes when entering the game over page, the high score gets submitted but doesn't update the UI so the player doesn't see their score on the boards.
  • Switching between gamepad and keyboard during a game doesn't always change the UI to reflect the buttons. - Fixed

Okay - I had some "spare time" so I played it and everything that was supposed to work worked!  I think I racked up something like 545 points but I don't like to brag. It would be nice if there was an exit button or escape worked but hey, this is alpha!

awesome, that is the highest score right now too :)

um...I watched your Thursday show and wished the comments were on it because I downloaded it and now  I can't figure out what keys to use for the game - sorry! 

The buttons should be on the screen? If for some reason they aren’t, the controls are arrow keys, 1,2,3 and q,w,e. :)

Sadly, they don't but thanks!
