New Features:

  • New "Unlimited Hints" DLC. Also unlocks user puzzles and lets you start any puzzle you own.

  • All DLC packs have 5 new puzzles each.

  • New User Pack 07 with 40 new puzzles from players.

  • New "Mirror Mode" setting. Mirrors puzzles front to back if that's more comfortable/intuitive for you to read.

  • Reworked nearly all puzzles up to Medium Pack 02 to be easier.

  • Arthur Owl talks about mirror mode during one of the tutorial puzzles.

  • Added a new "Always" letter marking style. This highlights joint letters until they are fully solved.

The new letter marking style makes the game quite a bit easier! It's also auto selected if you happen to be playing on the next easiest setting. If you were playing on any other difficulty, it will remain untouched.

Known Issues:

Mirror mode is experimental. The puzzle creator hasn't been changed to work with it yet. If it's popular I'll try to adapt the puzzle creator too. It's a surprisingly non-trivial feature to add, and occasionally it will place certain puzzles too close or too far away on completion. Again, I'll address this if it's popular.

Saved progress for puzzles are separate between mirror and normal mode. If you start a puzzle normally, quit before finishing and turn on mirror mode, then go back into the same puzzle, you'll need to start again. If you don't finish it then switch again, your previous save still exists. Completed puzzles aren't affected at all. In practice, I think pretty much nobody is going to notice how this isn't quite correct!
