Show HN: Starglyphs - A constellation puzzle game based on Euler paths
What happened
I am a big Dragon Age fan and sunk hundreds of hours into Inquisition. It had this minigame called astrariums where you had to solve these shapes based on constellation guides by tracing stars.
What shifts
I'm a hobby game dev and wondered if I could procedurally generate these puzzles so they were always solvable. Turns out you can, so I built a space puzzle game around it with a colorful aesthetic.
The wider picture
I released it in web form here but I'm currently working on getting it on Steam and mobile
