Jumping ahead for #screenshotsaturday! Here’s where Parallax is at now, about one month into development. The journey continues—follow along for the full story 🎲✨

Yeah, that's very tough. A smaller step you can take is buying something familiar or comfortable and trying to add to it or improve on it some way. Or trying to create a side to pair with it. Basically building out from what you already like.

I learned to cook late in life and these 3 things made the biggest difference for me, especially with new recipes:
1) No substitutions the 1st time trying a recipe
2) Carefully reading the recipe top to bottom before starting anything
3) Doing as much prep work as possible before touching the stove

Oh man, I’d love to have my game, Parallax, on here once it launches. I’d probably be aiming for the space where 999 currently is

Step 3: Teaching it to recognize poker hands ♠️♦️♣️♥️

Straights, X-of-a-kind, full house, plus some new ones for 6-die hands!

Easier to implement than selection, but getting it working was SO satisfying. First time it felt like playing a real game 🎲

Step 2: Selection 🎯

Rule: You can only select dice in a straight line & each perspective has 2 valid axes for selection—along dice with adjacent sides. This makes perspective shifting matter because different views = different lines

Adjacency logic and hit detection were TOUGH

Nickel — and as a bonus Ni is its atomic symbol

Puzzle game fan here. Just tried out Nokoma and I like it! Nice simple idea that organically creates emergent challenges—really clever!

Step 1: Building the board 🎲

Here’s the twist: Parallax doesn’t just have ONE board—it has FOUR perspectives of the same board. Everything else is built on this. Getting all four angles working and switching between them was my Dr. Frankenstein “IT’S ALIVE” moment ⚡

Thank you :)

Meet PARALLAX—a sci-fi flavored, dice-matching, perspective shifting puzzle game for iOS. 

I’m building this solo and sharing the journey from concept to launch—follow along! These are my original sketches from when the idea first hit me. Excited to share more!
