Eye Scrambler Gets a Few Fixes

Published by Dungster on August 28th.

A few tweaks have landed in Eye Scrambler. Sets marked with the Monochrome tag and containing fewer than 57 icons should now work properly. Sets with fewer icons but without the tag are now also handled, with some minor caveats.

For icon sets with less than 57 icons and without the Monochrome tag, the game will rotate the colors of the icons to create additional symbols. This works best with strongly colored artwork; mostly greyish icons, for example, may not change enough to look different.

I've also noticed that some sets currently in the Eye Scrambler collection have a small problem: a few icons are simply too similar. The letters set, for example, contains both a capital C and a small c, which can be surprisingly difficult to tell apart on a card. So, if you're entering the Eye Scrambler icon set contest, keep this in mind: clear, distinct symbols make for a much better game.

A few annoying clicking issues have been fixed as well, including cases where clicking an icon accidentally selected the image. Finally, the penalty for clicking the wrong symbol has been increased. Randomly clicking everything as fast as possible was becoming a borderline competitive strategy, and I've decided that this particular meta can go straight into the recycling bin.

Good luck, and keep those eyes sharp!

How were the icon sets chosen? Were they picked out by random or were the most popular options chosen? I personally prefer if a set actually met the criteria, then it can be added to the collection.

I picked some large sets to get the collection started, perhap some should be removed after there are enough good sets. - by Vlasta on August 28th

that makes sense. hopefully the games will get enough custom sets added for them to be popular. - by nibbler on August 29th

I suspect the game will get more custom sets added by users. - by The Male Boss on August 29th
