Like the game's bones, but a few suggestions:
1. You shouldn't be able to click a tile that's already flagged, whether or not it has a mine.
2. Honestly, there shouldn't be a ? option with the right click. It only makes it that little bit more annoying to unflag a tile.
3. Could be an option in the settings instead, but edge-panning just isn't responsive in a way that I personally enjoy. A way to drag and click instead would be nice, or maybe using WASD or arrow keys to move around.
4. In Eternal Mode, it might be a good idea to make it so that the first mine you click on a chunk doesn't do damage. Otherwise, you have to rely on RNG to not lose a life, if not just lose the run on Hardcore.
Also, is it just me, or are items just not working?
Thank you very much or the suggestions!
1/ You are totally right I'll do that :)
2/ I added just because it was part of the OG but I agree with you that it's more of an inconvenience that anything else. Made a quick search to see what other people think on the topic and looks like most of the people do not use them so I'll remove them.
3/ This made me think about something else. I did Edge Panning because I wanted to use middle button for chording on a future. But I think I'll keep chording RC+LC (as the OG) and add the screen movement with middle button of mouse(dragging). And even potentially AWSD also as it's not hard to do haha. I'll remove the edge panning with those added.
4/ Did you find a bomb on your first click? I made it so the first click is always safe for that specific RNG. On the second one you can find one yes but on your first one I think it's impossible I'll double ckeck that.
> Also, is it just me, or are items just not working?
Items do work but you need to have a click, because to the seed of the chunk is defined after the click to allow for a free first one without a bomb. Though I planned to add a text saying exactly that but I forgot on the release, I'll add the text.
And again, thank you very much for the feedback and I'm happy you enjoy it :)
Thank you for the response!
About the bomb on the first click, I double-checked and you're right that it never happens. I wasn't aware that it worked that way before, so I just assumed there was a chance.
As for the items, while I struggle to get them in the first place (my skill issue lol), I haven't seen any of them actually having an effect even after the first click. The only one that seemed to do anything were the ones that gave more lives. No mines nor safe spaces are revealed after the first click, even after purchasing their respective items.
Potentially was because you need to have at least a click on the screen to use the items.
With https://yawp-games.itch.io/hexplode/devlog/1318221/v003 I added a bit more information on the Items you have in case you cannot use them, which is only when you did not click anywhere yet.
