1GAM April - Preparation

I intend to participate in one game a month this april. My plan is to make a game about solving nonograms. The game could have some kind of twist like the pokemon picross game. In pokemon picross you collect pokemon by solving nonograms and you can use the pokemon's abilities to make solving nonograms easier. The game also could be educational. If the nonograms are grouped by starting letters of words there could for example be a nonogram for the letter C followed by words that start with C like cat or car.
    TODOs:
  • figure out how to implement the base mechanic
  • Create a tool to make nonograms. This could be a level editor made with WPF, a custom editor for unity or a script that creates a nonogram from an input image.
  • make a overworld/level selection thing
  • add some juice
  • (optional) add some kind of twist (custom rules)
When the game is done you can find it on itch.io.
