Number Wizard UI with improvements

Hi,
I went a bit further and made a couple of improvements to this game:

  1. added Difficulty screen - now you can choose between Easy, Medium and Hard.
    Each difficulty level differs through a number of guesses that computer has plus an “AI” setting.

  2. The guessing algorithm is a bit more sophisticated. It’s randomizing numbers, but keeps close to the half of the remaining range, so it’s not blindly random. The random range (expressed as a fraction of the remaining range) is what changes per difficulty.

  3. Each time it guesses a number, a check is made and buttons disabled to prevent giving wrong clue to computer. So, for example you can’t say your number is higher than 1000 or lower than 25, if you previously said it was higher than 24. So, sometimes you are left only with the ‘Correct !’ button to click! No more cheating on the CPU! :wink:

  4. The game now remembers the Score after a number of games. (and let’s you reset it too).

To achieve 1) and 4) I had to look up for preserving data between scenes, so that was a good thing to learn.

And just to sound a bit geeky:
Known bugs: Arial Bold font renders bit weirdly in WebGL for some reason.

Link to the game - hope you enjoy it:

Hey, sounds like an excellent set of additions to the game!

I really like the idea of the guessing algorithm changes you’ve made, sounds like it will make the game seem a lot more realistic and probably a fair bit harder than straight up random numbers.

I also like the preservation of data between scenes and adding in of a basic ‘options’ type set of data. It’s something I considered myself but was too lazy to look it up myself, so glad to see there’s people out there going above and beyond!

Hey, thanks for your feedback.
Pity I don’t get notifications, so replying with a delay.
Yeah, it’s a good learning experience to try doing better than the example given on a plate.

Make sure that you are tracking the topic, scroll to the bottom of the topic and on the keft there is an option to change this.

Additionally, check your preferences, click on your profile picture, then the cog icon, notification options are displayed at the bottom.

Finally, check that your registered email address isn’t dropping any notification emails into your spam / junk or bin.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the advices.
I figured out the notifications were going to an unused email address… Sorted now! :slight_smile:
