v1.1 - NEW & Revamped Powerups (and more)


Behold, the newest shiny update for Minesweeper, but with Powerups!

Featuring:

  • New powerups: Cross Probe, Bubble Finder, Scatter Flags, Number Reaction, Edge Sweep
    • Play to find out what they do ;)
  • Remaining or slightly tweaked powerups: Free Space, Combo Token, Tiny Cross, Big Star, Giant Cross (that's 10 total)
  • Powerups in general are cheaper and more versatile, allowing for a more powerful player experience
  • Fancy powerup previewing: dynamically shows exactly which tiles will be affected by powerups
  • Tile reveals from a powerup are now accompanied by an animation
  • Relax mode: for the extra casual player, a mode with no game overs and no game streaks
  • Double-clicking a number tile now performs a chord (same as left+right clicking)
  • Holding shift while clicking arrow buttons on the settings page now changes their value by larger chunks  (EDIT: this feature seems broken on web, I'll have to patch it later)
  • Pressing a number key on the keyboard now selects a powerup (in order shown at the top: 1 for Free Space, 2 for Combo Token, etc.)
  • Pressing C now cancels the currently selected powerup
  • Some visual tweaks to alternate skins and cancellable powerups for easier readability
  • Slight changes to UI and language in general to make everything more easily understood
  • Bugfix: The bottom text escapes the bounds of small boards with powerups disabled

The Powerups gameplay feels a lot different now -- Give it a whirl if you liked the previous version or want to see what this game is about!
