Brief game description, highlighting relationship to traditional minesweeper
this is minesweeper straight up but strictly NF. even worse, you need to correctly guess all the deductible sure saves based on the clue number before committing to mass reveal them. any of them are mines and its busted gives you negative score. busted for three times means lose. oh also we have classic NF mode

Interesting. Encourages you to keep more in your memory for sure. Also really slows the game down but I bet that's just practice. In the end tho, it's 100% the same skills as minesweeper. Aside from the novelty, I'd rather play original with flags I suspect. I wonder if there's an extra tweek or two you could add that would make this feel more like a new way to play and less like a new UI design. Maybe if points had some value (reveal mine, protect from death etc).
hi. I get your idea, but I don't think you realized what you did. You point out that the game mode is "no flag", but at the same time the idea of the game is generally about something else. that you can open several cells at once for a larger number of points (If I understood correctly). I also think that if you return the flags in this mode, it won't get any worse. Because the flag is a small victory and I had to recalculate the same thing 3-4 times because it was 50/50 and I had to recalculate every time I went there.
What was the dev environment? Sure would have been nice to have a web build...
its windows. about the web build at first i was reluctant because one component is depreciated but turns out its okay and now its on
Can you explain what NF means? It is interesting, I just don't quite get it. Why can't I flag mines? Is it just a challenge mode? I can just click one square and mass reveal like normal minesweeper. It works and it is still enjoyable.
NF = No Flag. minesweeper playstyle that simply don't use flags. so yeah the whole game is challenge mode and classic NF is just streamlining the minesweeper NF experience by mass reveal on every click and preventing flag to begin with
