this would have absolutely destroyed any chance of me paying attention in class if i had this during high school lmaoo anyways i was here before this blew up

Oh no I'm so screwed I love picross and hated that they never ported these to PC I ran into an issue with the game, though. Sometimes clicking to mark with left MB will just... behave as if I had marked it with the right MB (the X) and it won't go away until I clear it with right MB.

Other than that I didn't have any problems, so thank you for making this!

ooh yeah, fix for this should be coming out soon but it's a built in feature to swap to the other tool when you hold the button for a second, should be able to toggle it off once the update is out

this is insane work as someone who has played and beaten most of the Switch picross games, this is my reason to revisit the game

thank you!! been doing the same, it's been a fun way to go back to them

kinda tempted to go back to streaming just for this. chill stream with lo-fi in the background and a whole bunch of picross

does this include online multiplayer? I'd love that

yes and no! you can see friends' times on each level on the site but there isn't any kind of head to head multiplayer mode yet ala picross ds (although that game's multiplayer maps are included and can be played solo)

I was more so thinking of the co-op mode from the switch picross games, where two people could work on the same board (sort of like the snes games) I've been looking for a game that has that as a online feature, this would be so cool if implemented here

THIS IS SO NICE if i may suggest one feature, i think it'd be nice if we could turn off the hold to place an x, my brain keeps waiting for it to register the fill and doing that by accident lol

it's an option in the settings! you can increase the threshold of turn it off

hold to erase marks? that setting didn't do anything different for me when i changed it

oh my god this is insane?? i love this so much

This is amazing!! Thank you for the work!! I assume no AI was used?

Also if I have but one request -- I'd like the tutorial levels to play normally when assists are toggled off, for no assist badge collectors like I. I managed to find a lil quirk to exploit to get such badges by skipping the tutorial on a slide where the puzzle is filled in, but that's not the same!

this is the closest to a no assist perfect I could manage on the tutorial page... the Flower taunts me by having no tutorial slide with a filled in puzzle...

This is so cool and awesome and will absolutely terrible for my note taking abilities during boring classes lmao question, do u have plans to implement the pokemon mechanics of Pokemon Picross later down the line?

i had an over year long period of brainrot where i played all of base pkmn picross entirely f2p and i found the pokemon to be very fun and/or useful to use for some of the really hard levels of that game.

this is awesome, but it keeps misinputting X's when i'm clicking normally and it's really annoying. i'm on laptop trackpad rn if that could be the culprit

this low key might actually get me to play picross

the fact that this works on mobile is going to permanently shatter my productivity. incredible work!!

did you hand transcribe all of these puzzles????? this is insane, i cannot wait to waste my life on this

nope! every puzzle was pulled out of each original game's data and converted to the same format for the site

this makes me so happy...

Hooooly shit this is about to be my whole month Thank you so much for compiling it, the Picross S games are so rad but sometimes I don't wanna pull my Switch out for 'em

This is so awesome, thank you for making this!!!!!

this project would not have been possible without all of the talented work done by Jupiter Corporation on the Picross series over the past 30 years, I hope this collection allows more people to appreciate their work. Special thanks to Emma for helping w/ the social features, and to my beta testers

THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT AAAAAAAAA THIS IS SO AMAZING

will probably have a more detailed writeup on this later but because this has been blowing up way faster than anticipated, quick AI disclosure:

apologies for not posting anything sooner on this, I have (complicated) thoughts on this and wanted to write up a proper piece but didn't expect this to blow up as quickly as it did

Okay, playing it a bit, my biggest gripe is as a mouse player, there's no mark binding? I can't find a way to set the 🔸mark binding thing to middle mouse at all tbh.

How do I download this before Nintendo takes it down

offline version should be coming with the next release sometime this week!

This is great thank you, any plans for language support?

not in the immediate future! i do have language data extracted for some of the games but a number of them were not localized (especially the older ones), but given the scope of the project it'd be a large translation job without resorting to machine translation which I wouldn't want to do

I was just saying the other day that it amazed me that this didn't exist, I'm beyond grateful for your work on this. My wife and I LOVE Picross (she completed all the Switch ones! I'm working my way through the 3DS ones) and we'll enjoy this lots! 💕

thank you!! i hope you both enjoy it

this is awesome for someone like me whose been getting into picross very recently! my only note is that i’d love to see a way you can sort the games by release date in the selection menu. that would be neat i think! besides that, this rocks a ton from what i’ve tested!!

Awesome!!! I love the Picross S series but it’s hard to justify keeping my switch charged just for it. Is this project open source?

one of the big reasons i made it! right now it's closed source and likely will be for the near future. at the start of the project i wasn't planning on making this public at all so the repository needs a lot of cleanup, especially in terms of the amount of copyrighted assets it has

Sounds good! I’m mainly asking because I’m incredibly wary of AI code being used in projects like these. I take it this was made without AI assistance?

AMAZING, THANK YOU MAY

YOU'RE WELCOME!! I hope you enjoy it

oh my god this is everything ive ever wanted, holy shit this is SO cool!!!!

ah yes, entertainment on my phone before bed for free, satisfactory Picross is something I've been meaning to get into too, so that's perfect

whoa this is fucking sick, awesome level of polish for a web game too!!! as a web game developer myself this makes me very happy, amazing work

omg thank you!!! 🌼i play picross at work all the time and needed some real puzzles cuz the seed generated ones all suck Xd

holy shit may this is amazing
