Very interesting game!

I Love nonograms so I loved this game. Some puzzles seem to have multiple solutions and I think the hints sometimes are too lemiemt when turning blue. Love the game otherwise.

One thing I think would increase satisfaction a lot would be to gain time with each correctly marked tile instead of when finishing the puzzles. Would make for gut wrenching races when time is running out, much like speed chess

I’m glad you enjoyed it :)

I was wondering if the completed hint labels color was good for everyone so this is valuable to hear!

The idea about time is actually really good! I’ve been struggling against the whole “time just runs out whilst you’re playing” so this is really nice solution to it! (I’ll have to play around with it later)

Amazing

I did not expect to like this game as much as I did, and looking at the screenshots I now want to play again to see what the other items do!

Nonograms aren't my specialty so I didn't get very far, but I like the implementation here. And I can't even begin to think on how to procedurally generate them.

Thank you!! The implementation is really quite wild and it became especially harsh when I realised “ambiguous” cases occurred – memoization really saved the day with the performance on this one at least haha

I’m not usually doing Nonograms under the clock, but I enjoyed this new take a lot. The teddy bears were very helpful!
