Pictopix news & patch notes

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/474865f1186774dca3d50b20eb1abd4ef84a0823.png Hi everyone, I hope you're all well.

4,000 puzzles!

I'm happy to announce that the number of puzzles you've created in the Workshop has exceeded 4000! Thank you all for your beautiful creations. There are all kinds. Video games, movies, music, comics, animals and so much more! ːishappyː That's a lot of puzzles now. So don't hesitate to filter puzzles by theme or size. And use the Random button (bottom right) and uncheck “Include solved puzzles” to play puzzles you've missed (faster than browsing all Workshop pages). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/865f99d0106f04345e29aa87072f12655399bc61.png

1,000 reviews!

I'm very happy to announce that Pictopix hits 1,000 reviews! With 96% of positive reviews!! Thank you very much for all your support and feedback! ːisveryhappyː Since Pictopix was released in 2017, many of you have been giving feedback and also creating puzzles in the Workshop (over 3,000 now!). When I started working on Pictopix, I never thought it would get this far. I first wanted to create a picross game that would appeal to me as a player. Then many of you helped me to improve it, as well as translating it into different languages. It's great to have a community like this. As this is my first solo game (I'd already worked for video game companies before), I've had quite an amazing adventure, and I'd like to thank you all for that ːisheartː To celebrate the event, Pictopix is currently on sale: https://store.steampowered.com/app/568320/Pictopix/

What's next?

On the other hand, I've got some bad news. I've been working with the Unity game engine (the one used to make Pictopix) for almost 10 years now. It's a powerful tool with which many developers have created wonderful games (Hollow Knight, Cuphead, Tunic, etc.). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/26e89903609718228c6b67c476e292c77ad22a6d.png Unfortunately, Unity Technnologies has recently changed its pricing structure for developers. Costs are becoming prohibitively expensive for small independent developers like me (and for companies too). Like many developers, I'm protesting these new fees. As there is little chance of Unity reversing its decision, I will be forced to stop development on this game engine. Which means no more updates for Pictopix. Maybe one day I'll port it to another game engine (a sequel?). As I also have other projects, I don't know yet ːishappyː In any case, I'd like to thank you for your understanding and wish you lots of fun on Pictopix. Thanks for your support ːisheartː Tom discord: https://t.co/Kf4rbUOeJi mastodon: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@pictopix twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/36d4c4184e46ce5b490886789978c481b76f3dc8.png Hi everyone, I'm very happy to announce that Pictopix is now available on Steam Deck! ːisstarː

Fully compatible with Steam Deck!

Today Steam officially launches the Steam Deck! If you have pre-ordered the console, you will be happy to know that Pictopix has been updated to be fully compatible with the console. The game is now playable with the controller, the trackpad and the touch screen! With the help of another developer who owns the Steam Deck (Simon Bachmann who worked on the game Pathway), I was able to make sure that Pictopix worked perfectly on the console. Some parts of the game were tweaked to make the game suitable for the console. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/3a3bc8e8328b543b30a06d1fc6440b76b94b1abe.png Thanks Simon for this nice picture!

New puzzle!

I also made some small corrections and added a new skin in the Interface tab ("Black & White"). And to celebrate the arrival of Pictopix on Steam Deck, I created a new puzzle in the Workshop. I wish you a lot of fun playing it ːisveryhappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/f0930b2f9ffdc5021bfcaf0567b8f9493e4b0a08.png

Steam Deck owner?

You have a Steam Deck? Feel free to share pictures or videos on social media! (see below for links) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/539ac1fd6b2c461be1237e6def8b2e798b60a92a.png Have fun on Pictopix and see you soon ːishappyː Tom

IMPORTANT NOTE!

Following an update of the Steam Deck, a small setting is necessary to play with the controller: - On the Steam page of the game, click on the settings (gear on the right) - In the drop-down list, click on Properties. - In Compatibility section, check "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility" and select "Steam Linux Runtime" discord: https://t.co/Kf4rbUOeJi twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/ecd7804d7b541a8b3397325df5b80dbaf640b45c.png Hi everybody, I wish you all a Happy New Year! ːisheartː I hope you had a good holiday and enjoyed the Christmas puzzles recently added in Pictopix. If you missed them, feel free to read the previous news. Of course they are still available.

4th Anniversary

Today marks the 4th anniversary of Pictopix! ːisstarː To celebrate the event, I've added a puzzle in the Workshop. The theme of this puzzle is "Special Event". {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/a3e764d1b08c4da5103a41d4dfeb2f5ad253b746.png I also have another gift for you...

Special gift

A long time ago, in 2009, I was a big fan of a Nintendo game called Picross DS (maybe you played it?) It was the first time I played a game like that. I was so obsessed with it that one day I developed in a few days a little Flash game based on it. A lot of time passed. Then I recently learned that Adobe company was going to end support of Flash for good. So I dug into my archives to look at the Flash games I had created. And I found the picross game! As Pictopix's birthday was approaching, it was the perfect timing to let you discover this little game I had developed ːishappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/1b68d4f03df3165babeca04a9644cbdc1975386e.png So if you want to play the game, just click on this link to download it: http://pictopix.tomlabgames.com/download/PicrossGame.zip Then unzip the ZIP file in a new directory. I recommend reading the README.txt file before launching the game (double click on the "Run Game" icon). As you can see, the game is not as complete as Pictopix. There are fifteen levels, a small level editor and... that's it! For the record, this little game helped me get a job in a video game company ːisveryhappyː The game is of course free so you are free to share the game with other players. And if you have any questions, don't hesitate! Have fun and see you soon ːishappyː Tom discord: https://t.co/Kf4rbUOeJi twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/3b3a07bc07e738c058c9d54afe4fde4926194281.png Oh oh oh! Happy holidays everyone! ːisstarː First, I hope you're going well and are safe. To celebrate Christmas, I have a gift for you!

Christmas puzzles

I've added new puzzles based on Christmas theme in Pictopix! Just go in the Workshop screen to download the puzzles. Do not hesitate to sort the puzzles by "Christmas" theme if you missed those from previous years! I hope you enjoy them ːishappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/50d35ad93ee8e2d971781abc02e64dc8238f54e5.png Feel free to create your own Christmas puzzles with the level editor!

4 years old soon!

Pictopix will be 4 years old on 5 January 2021! I would like to thank you all once again for your feedback and great reviews. It's a real pleasure to see the community grow, create lots of puzzles (2,000!) and enjoy Pictopix. So, have fun! ːisveryhappyː Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! ːisheartː Tom discord: https://t.co/Kf4rbUOeJi twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

Pictopix has got free updates and contents throughout the year, so the game is open for nominations for "Labor of Love"!

2,000 puzzles!

I'm very happy to announce that the number of puzzles created in the Steam Workshop has exceeded 2,000! You're just amazing ːisveryhappyː Since the release of Pictopix in January 2017, you have never stopped to create new puzzles. Themes are varied. It goes from video games to animals, comics, tv show, food, movies and many more! Some of the puzzles are very original and beautiful! I cannot name you all, but there are great contributors such as philomath_jp, Mattcraft900, bobscomic1, NPC #2431, theunnecessary, WheatTooth, MrNiceCream, Blü, Cakoka, Nupfi, Plushymanceress, Misora, Turbulent, Korb3n, Rena, sunyatsen6, Ishtar, Mittens, Hennihenner, Perendi, Flying Tom, pEppEr™, ChildishGiant, Kethlak... I'm probably forgetting names! So, I'd like to thank you all for continuing to play Pictopix and creating new puzzles. I'm still amazed that so many people still enjoy playing Pictopix, so thank you very much! ːisheartː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/f321da87bc841d47af98fa25fe5d3e25f287cc83.png Two thousands, that's a lot of puzzles! Don't forget you can filter the puzzles with the sort options (theme, size, etc.). You can also let the game randomly choose a puzzle for you by clicking the Random button.

Update

Following your latest feedback, Pictopix is still being improved. The last version is 1.5.0c and you can check out the changelog here (or in game). If you have any suggestion or feedback, please do not hesitate to let me know. Here, on the forum, or on Discord if you prefer ːishappyː Have fun and see you soon! ːisstarː Tom ːisgoodː Official Discord ːisgoodː Facebook ːisgoodː Twitter ːisgoodː Tumblr ːisgoodː Instagram

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/e64f56b83973098c201b9558dff8a7a361ea4e9e.png Hey everyone, I hope you are all safe and well! I'm pleased to announce a new update for Pictopix! ːishappyː

Awards

A major modification has been made: The way you earn awards (crowns) has been changed! As you can see on the picture below, you now earn more awards when playing in Intermediate and Expert mode. And if you solve a puzzle in Expert difficulty with almost no errors, awards are golden! Thus, newcomers to picross games will get more pleasure to make progress and experienced players are still challenged in Pictopix! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/432bc05e18d14b440369e15613a99c24450cf6dd.png (Game Options > Hints Tab > Awards Section) When you launch the game after the update, your game save (awards + achievements) will be updated. Some achievements might be unlocked! ːisveryhappyː

Patterns

Following players' suggestions, it's now possible to choose a pattern for the grid background. Spotting a square or counting squares will be easier and quicker! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27228690/456d69ab0f234ba65752dd1fe8e462aa796d003a.gif (Game Options > Interface Tab) Don't forget that enabling "Preview Filling" (Game Options > Gameplay Tab) displays a squares counter on screen! (more info here)

Running on background

One of your requests was to let the game run when you switch to another application. That's now the case! When the game loses focus, Pictopix no longer pauses. If you prefer the game to pause, you can check the "Pause game on focus loss" option (Game Options > Interface Tab)

And more enhancements!

As you can see in the changelog (version 1.5.0), other enhancements have been made to improve the game experience. Once again, thank you for the feedback and suggestions! ːisheartː

1,800 puzzles in the Workshop!

I'm pleased to see that the number of puzzles is still growing in the Workshop. More than 1,800 puzzles have been created by the community! Some puzzles are very nice and originals!

This update adds new content and foremost a new game mode: the Mosaics Mode! :isstar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVqKxQN_cxE

Mosaics Mode

In this new game mode, you'll have to reveal three large pictures! They are composed of grids of puzzles. Solve the puzzles one after the other for unveiling small parts of the picture. When all of the tiles are completed, the entire image will appear in color! You can play the puzzles in any order you like or, if you prefer, click on the Shuffle button (upper right corner of the screen) to pick a random puzzle! As you can see in game, the size of the puzzles vary from one mosaic to another. In the first mosaic, the puzzles are 10 x 10. In the second one, 15 x 15. And 20 x 20 in the last mosaic! There are more than a hundred of puzzles to solve! Completing the three large mosaics should take several hours. :ishappy: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/f67230072b594f2571b3c7a9450ac4b4b19896e7.gif

New Achievements

I also added four new achievements in relation to the Mosaics Mode. The most skilled players among you will probably want to earn all the awards in this mode! :isveryhappy: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/9e946a79994bb9f9859050f405266bd90578ce3b.png I hope you will have fun with the Mosaics Mode! Do not hesitate to give feedback :ishappy: As usual, you can read the full changelog here (version 1.4.0). I made some minor fixes and improvements in the game. Once again, I would like to thank the players who help me translate the game. :isheart: To celebrate the arrival of the Mosaics DLC, Pictopix is on sale for several days!

I hope you are enjoying some time off with family and relaxing with good games! To celebrate Christmas, I have a gift for you! Some new puzzles and a small update :ishappy:

Christmas puzzles

I've added puzzles of various sizes based on Christmas theme in Pictopix. Go in the Workshop, you will see the new puzzles. Do not hesitate to sort the puzzles by "Christmas" theme if you missed those of the past year! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/f2d5bf32477d363fe7cd72b290d217017a778bc5.png A little surprise is waiting you when you complete a puzzle on Christmas theme!

Workshop notifications

When you run the game, a notification will now appear on some buttons if new puzzles have been added in the Workshop. The notification will display the number of puzzles created since your last visit. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/cd1b2afa34b44cbdab5560ad11660698fb43e542.png Besides this new feature, I made some minor tweaks and fixes in the new update (version 1.3.6)

Winter Solstice

Today is winter solstice! If you have (almost) finished the classic mode, perhaps you should take a look at puzzles :ishappy:

Two years old

On 5 January 2019, Pictopix will be 2 years old! Once again, I'd like to thank all of the people who play Pictopix! Thanks for helping me improve the game and translate it in different languages. Thanks for creating hundreds of puzzles in the Workshop. Thank you also for your positive reviews and feedback! :isheart: It's amazing to see players spending hundreds of hours on Pictopix so it makes me very happy!

Halloween

Like last year, there is a special event hidden in the game! To discover what it is, here's a little hint: go into the Workshop and play a puzzle in the Halloween theme :ishappy: Feel free to use the search engine to find puzzles quickly! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/85182daa01c6026f22f2ef4948a35e5f7ed0ed99.png Henceforth, this event will be active every year over the same period. I've also created a new puzzle in the Workshop. I hope you'll enjoy it!

Preview filling

In the new update, Pictopix introduces a new feature named "Preview filling". When this one is enabled, now you can preview the squares that you are filling. Hold the button and move the cursor to highlight squares. Then release the button to fill the squares! A counter is also displayed next to the cursor. It shows the number of squares highlighted. It can be helpful to count them. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/8eae72425bf058b55e452b4160f9216b10be8818.gif This feature works with the mouse, the keyboard or the controller! You can enable "Preview filling" in the game options (Gameplay tab) Some players were asking me regularly this feature. I was reticent at first because I thought the feature will give an advantage to players in Challenges mode, but it does not. :ishappy:

Interface improvement

In the previous update (version 1.3.4), I added the "Thick line" option in the Interface tab. When you check it, the five-block indicator lines are thicker (thanks constantcompile for the suggestion!) https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/b688976c23f18beb5e9c2037add607ce6c0190f9.gif I also updated some skins and added two new ones ("Classic Dark" and "Amethyst") : https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/3e82cf2506209128eeacdcecf4e3c75ec35e702f.gif

Translation

Once again, I would like to thank the players who help me translate Pictopix in their own language. Sometimes they are not always available so there may be some missing translation. In such cases, feel free to let me know! As usual, you will find the full changelog here (version 1.3.5). Have fun and see you soon! :isveryhappy: Tom discord: https://t.co/Kf4rbUOeJi twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

I'm glad to announce that Pictopix has got a new update with some special features! The first one is the integration of Twitch. Let me introduce this new feature!

Twitch Integration

After several tests and iterations of this feature with the help of a few players and the french streamer Seldell (many thanks to him!), I'm finally satisfied with the Twitch integration. When the streamers enable this feature, the viewers can interact with the game by typing commands to the Twitch chat! For example, if a viewer wants to fill the square at coordinates B 4, he just types "!fill B4". The proposal will be displayed on game screen. The streamer can check the proposal ("!fill 15" in the screenshot) before validating or discarding it. The streamer can also activate an "Autoplay" option and the most submitted actions will be played automatically after a certain period of time! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/914f2c37ced31f39736e4f60af71aa2f26d72fa5.png Following is a list of commands you can type in Twitch chat:

• !fill: fill blank squares.
• !cross: mark blank squares with crosses.
• !mark: mark temporarily blank squares.
• !clear: clear blank.
• !help: display the commands in chat.

The first four commands can be used in this way:

• !fill : fill a column (for e.g. !fill A)
• !fill : fill a row (for e.g. !fill 1)
• !fill : fill a square (for e.g. !fill A1)
• !fill : fill a line (for e.g. !fill A1 A5)

Streamers can enable Twitch Integration in the game options (Streaming tab): https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/cbda4ea2a41a7a012f56e49ca154ecd48cb78b12.png Enter your Twitch username then click on "Get OAuth" button. This will open a web page ( https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ ). Click on "Connect with Twitch". Copy the text "oauth:...." (press Ctrl+C to copy the selected text) and paste it in "OAuth Password:" field in Pictopix (press Ctrl+V to paste). Then click "Enable Twitch Integration". The username and the OAuth password will be saved and Pictopix will be connected to Twitch. Just start a puzzle to play with your viewers! I hope you will appreciate this new game mode! Do not hesitate to give feedback about Twitch Integration. :ishappy:

Discord

I've added Rich Presence suppport to Discord. Now you can see which game mode your friends are playing. If one of them is playing Challenge Mode for example, you can join him to try to break his record! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/dc99a77ba5d9622609c9103c063662a33354bc95.png Feel to join the discord of Pictopix if you want to discuss about the game!

Steam Chat

As in Discord, you can see which game mode your friends are playing. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/ec4a18713e3e889aaccd3a70a6e4f07ebc89fa2b.png If you want to learn more about the Steam Chat update, you can click this link: https://steamcommunity.com/updates/chatupdate As usual, many fixes and improvements have been made since the last update. Take a look at the changelog (version 1.3.2) to check them out. Have fun and see you soon! :isveryhappy: Tom twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

No new puzzles this time but I've added some new game modes: an Endless mode and a Challenges mode! I'll tell you about them. :ishappy:

Endless mode

In this game mode the grids are generated at random! Choose the size of the grids you want to have and define other parameters. If you prefer square grids of which the size is a multiple of 5, it's possible! You can therefore customize your puzzle as you wish. An abstract image will be shown at the end of each puzzle – with different colors. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/6412d5a69d2881fd09f1b03aa287c0e5f70c3f88.png The interface of Endless mode If you want to practice or just do a quick puzzle in Pictopix, Endless mode is a good addition to the puzzles created by the players in the Workshop! https://media.giphy.com/media/1Xg4IWCqDAJ3y0uql9/giphy.gif A random generated puzzle

Challenges mode

If what you like is solving puzzles as quickly as possible, Challenges mode is made for you! Different challenges are presented, notably against the clock. Solve a series of four 5x5 puzzles as quickly as possible. Your time will be saved in a leaderboard. Not only can you compare your times with other players but also watch their game! The challenges are renewed every half hour and the leaderboards are stocked for 24 hours. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/795f2ec091d8b81edadbb03abba0aa80e95c0e86.png The Challenges mode interface As of now there are 4 Time Trials challenges. I may add other kinds of challenges later! https://media.giphy.com/media/t8dX3Pv1LtSFeXtHI7/giphy.gif Watch players' games!

New achievements

To mark the occasion, 4 new achievements have been added and 2 have been modified. The 4 new achievements are linked to the Challenges mode. To unlock them, do the challenges in the time allowed. The other two are "5 ■ 5" and "10 ■ 10". These were originally created when playing puzzles in Shuffle mode (in Classic mode). They are now linked to Endless mode because they are more appropriate to randomly generated puzzles. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/684bf1950329add678d4a85589cf01f9af5db529.png

Translations

I would like once again to thank the players who translate the game. If you can play Pictopix in your own language, it's thanks to them. Excuse me if some parts of the game have not yet been translated. The players do the translations in their own free time so we must give them time to complete them. Don't hesitate to thank them personally! Their names are in the game credits. As always, you'll find the modifications in the changelog (version 1.3.0) Have fun and see you soon! :isveryhappy: Tom twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

On the face of it the update will look quite inoffensive but maybe when you play a puzzle I've added to the Workshop (theme "Machine" from Tomlab Games) something will happen! Some things might have changed in the game! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/1c2c7073533bd214c2f53fb663d9a078e0c63043.png To give you a clue, this update involved quite a lot of texts... A big part of them have been translated in some languages, so I would like to thank the translators who have joined in. The task was not easy :ishappy: With this event, a new achievement will be unlocked and a permanent option will be added to the game options (in the "Gameplay" Tab). I hope you'll like this little surprise! As usual some small corrections have been made. You'll find them here (version 1.2.4) https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/50e6db273069a78c914b01e19fd666d3d8150cce.png I'll take the opportunity to say that in version 1.2.3 which came out two weeks ago the game's ergonomics were improved. The Options window has been totally redesigned to be more user friendly. Above all, it is now possible to reconfigure the keys on the keyboard, the mouse and even the controller! In the same way, the keyboard shortcuts in the editor can also be modified. Have fun and see you soon! :isheart: Tom twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/

The welcome you gave to the first anniversary update gave me great pleasure. I got several articles in the press (which you can find on twitter or facebook). A website like Rock, Paper, Shotgun did a great article on Pictopix which you can read here. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/44d01a4b0d317a441efdb477b21486a15a152c6f.png I would like to thank the players once again for all the positive feedback and remarks which help me to improve the game. With this new update I will be replying to your expectations. Here are the new features and improvements:

Skins

The other novelty is that you are now able to select the skin of your choice in the options. This will change the color of some parts of the interface as well as the grid. So, if you would like the background color to be darker while you are playing the game, it's now possible. For those of you who like tinkering with this sort of thing it is possible to add your own skins in the application's Skins directory.

Cursor

As from now you can choose between two types of cursor: the original square one and another which lights up the column and the row you are hovering on. On the bigger grids this can be helpful by making it easier to identify the squares or boxes in the row/column concerned. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/86a35b579ec71d129d3b01b77ced5281cf31ab0b.gif

Selection of numbers

When the hints are disabled it is possible to click on the numbers to gray them out manually. Well this is now possible from the game controller or from the keyboard! It's quite simple – you just have to hold down the LT button or the Alt key. Arrows will come up on the row and column concerned. Select the row or the column with the stick (or the directional arrows) then move along the numbers to gray them out with the A button (or the space bar). When finished release the LT button (or the Alt key) to get the cursor back on the grid. http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/47d69c14b13efe97c393779880b9b339fa4878be.gif To see the other modifications and corrections you can consult changelog (version 1.2.1). If you'd like to see Pictopix on gog.com one day don’t hesitate to vote on the thread created by a player. One never knows! In closing, I would like to thank Red Orc who has kindly translated the puzzles (Anniversary update) in Japanese.

Here’s a small update a bit special… For Halloween I've prepared a little surprise. It’s easy to take advantage of it – just go into the Workshop and play a puzzle in the Halloween theme. Don’t hesitate to use the search engine to find them quickly! http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/27228690/72e1ea32adee1900a78f909f261f4b466df60c29.png Once you’ve finished a puzzle… well… I'll leave you to find out what happens! I've also created a few puzzles on this theme in the Workshop to mark the occasion. You’ll find others created by the players as well – I hope you'll like them! The Halloween event will end on Monday November 6th. Halloween puzzles will remain in the game of course. There are several improvements and corrections in this update as well. You’ll find them in the changelog (version 1.1.19). To keep up with the news on Pictopix, sign up on one of the social networks such as twitter, facebook, tumblr or instagram. Have fun! ːisveryhappyː Tom twitter: https://twitter.com/pictopix facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pictopix/ tumblr: https://pictopix.tumblr.com/ instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pictopix_game/
