Author Topic: Minesweeper!  (Read 2423 times)

I decided to see if i could recreate the the classic minesweeper game on Blockland and I got pretty close:



Gameplay:
You start off by clicking the base of the board (maybe 1 or 2 times to make sure the functions are stated).
After that just click a square (its never the first one, right?).



Oh goody, a one. [Note: The 1 indicates that there is exactly 1 mine to north, south, east, or west of that square (I know its not like the original, but its hard to do this with no named bricks).]
Well, lets just pick another randomly.



YAY! A zero! That means we can click all the squares around that one!



Moar zeroes! Click ALL the squares!



Awww... Click time over...
Now, using a bit of logic, i have filed out the rest of the board; spray painting red the mines.



Now to show you there really were mines there:



There's no indication that you've won or penalty if you click a mine, but that just leaves room for improvement.

Difficulty:
Now i bet you're wondering, "Dude that board was too easy."
Well Dude, you can make it harder on yourself by wrenching the base brick and changing the number there lower (or higher if its too hard).



[Note: For you techies, that number doesn't indicate the number of mines on the board, it indicates the probability that a square will have a mine. For example, if you put a 10 there, each square has a 1 in 10 chance of having a mine.]

Feel free to rate, but plz no hate comments.

Nicely done!

edit: Do the mines go by random? or do they stay in one place?

Completely random when you hit the baseplate. (I might change that into hitting a button)


wonderful idea make TDM Minessweeper!

I have great respect for minesweeper, it's a game that's made me rage quite a few times before, you did a good job of this

There are no zeros in the original minesweeper.

And this is why I think that you are the best eventer on blockland. 1st a connect 4 game, then a working vce calculator, then this. Simply amazing.

There needs to be recoloration of the board so you can see which square you are clicking

Otherwise nice job.

I shall make some adjustments.

hehe... awesome

Good ol' minesweeper!


Nice!

I wanted to build something like this myself a while back, but couldn't figure out how to event the diagonals. I didn't even think of this solution, which seems to work good.

Should blow you up when you click on the mines.
