tuifoop is a terminal puzzle game.
It is a clone of Swell Foop, written in Bash.
The aim is to remove as many cells as possible (or even all cells) from a grid. The user navigates in the grid using the navigation keys, and can select a cell to remove. Cells can be removed in clusters of more than one cells adjacent to each other. Single cells cannot be removed.
When selected, a cluster of adjacent similar cells is removed, and the remaining cells above take their place.
When a whole grid column is cleared, it collapses and the remaining columns to the right shift to fill its place.
IMPORTANT:
Most themes are based in emoji characters.
In order for the emoji characters to be rendered correctly, the user must:
-
Make sure that emoji characters are supported in their terminal.
-
Make sure suitable mono font is used to render the grid and the emoji backgound properly. For instance, ubuntu font can support emojis, however the font background is not rendered correctly, therefore the grid cursor (where the cursor is placd in the cell matrix) cannot be seen in the terminal window.
If a problem is encountered as this is concerned, it is easily resolved by changing to a more appropriate font through terminal application's preferences or configuration, so that the emojis as well as the grid are rendered correctly.
