Ringing in the New Year with picross 🎉🎉🎉
Hope everyone had a good time celebrating the New Year with your friends and family. I had a nice quiet night with the family playing board games while it poured outside.
This week’s featured puzzle
Love Potion by JimdeB is this week’s featured 25x25 puzzle. My picross solver algorithm rated this with a difficulty score of 15, which is much higher than last week’s puzzle (with score of 3), so see if it gives you notice an increased challenge.
Remember you can share your completion time with your friends and challenge them to do better!
A new home for the Weeklys
In case you missed it, the Weekly puzzle will be temporarily unavailable in the Pixelogic app until I submit a new (revamped) version of the app to the App Store. In the meantime, enjoy playing the Weekly puzzle for free on our website with the link above. Read the full blog post for more details.
Mindfulness in the new year
Did you know I released a mindful journaling app called Momentory just last month? If you’re interested in starting a healthy journaling habit that focuses on cultivating gratitude, releasing worry, and getting out of your head, give it a try! I’m proud of the clean design and subtle animations that make it a joy to use.
Psyched that you’re revamping the app. You have the best UI in the genre, hands-down. Please keep options to turn off assistance, and adding an option to default to no-zoom would be great too for larger puzzles. Looking forward to seeing how it plays on the larger phone screens!
