| Chapter 7: The Falling Puzzle Game
Up until this chapter, all the games have been turn-based. That means the player takes a turn and then has as long as he or she wants to make the next turn. Puzzle games are often done this way, but they don't have to be. You can have action-based puzzles as well. In this chapter we will build a game called "The Falling Puzzle Game." This is probably the most popular form of computer action puzzle game. You may recognize it. | |
