Flare Squip (Square Flip) is a small puzzle game written for Bung Enterprises 2nd Gameboy Coding Competition.
Simplicity was a key element of the design. Even though the game is fully playable, due to time constraints, things such as menus and pretty graphics are missing (the entire game code takes less than 8KB).
User guide
Flip the tiles to make them turn white. When all tiles are white, press Start to go to the next level.
You can switch to different flip modes at anytime (assume arrow is on middle square):
Orig. First (Default) Second Third 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0
A new random level is generated each time a new "level" is selected or the flip mode is changed. A flip counter is provided to indicate how many flips have been executed so far.
There is nothing to win, so the goal is to have fun playing it.
