Peg City Parks Jigsaw - Puzzle Gameplay

Things are really coming together for my upcoming Peg City Parks Jigsaw game! You can play puzzles through to completion, with a short but satisfying success animation at the end.

Puzzle Gameplay

The gameplay is feeling "just right" for a casual jigsaw puzzle game. Soothing background music. Subtle sound effects when picking up pieces, dropping pieces, or connecting pieces, with just a little bit of variation. Glow effects around the piece's edges when it detects that you've moved a piece to a valid connection. The ability to toggle the view of the final photo. And a simple zoom in / out feature.

Here's a preview of the subtle green glow you get as feedback while moving a piece into position:

Puzzle Completion

When you complete a puzzle, there's a short but satisfying animation as the puzzle cross-fades into the final photo:

Overall Project Status

Maintaining player progress is up next, and then a whole bunch of polish and testing to make sure everything is working smoothly.

I'm in a really good spot to be able to release in the second half of May! 😎
