kirchhoff··on Show HN: Summle – A little maths Game
I wrote a script which generates all possible solutions for a given puzzle.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: Summle – A little maths Game
I made the site a few years ago, but I've refined it and added some features over time. Hopefully it's worth another mention!
kirchhoff··on Show HN: SinglePage – Quickly and anonymously publish a page to the web
I run a similar service which is free and editable.

kirchhoff··on Show HN: Countle
I made summle.net a while back, which is similar.

After I while I found that this type of game can be frustrating as you are not incrementally solving the puzzle - instead there are multiple dead ends before stumbling upon the solution.

kirchhoff··on Ask HN: Your admittedly useless side projects?
I have a few which I haven't touched for years;

Site seems compromised?
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
To make the site work as an 'app' you just need it to conform to the PWA (Progressive Web App) guidelines, and handle the install prompt. There's a good guide here:

Today's puzzle was difficult I admit. It's tough to find a balance, I'm still working on it!

Can I ask which device you're using?

I think you meant to post in the thread about the emoji game?

Thanks for the feedback. Re: the scrolling issue - can I ask which device?
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
Thanks. The 'share results' grid is about as minimal as I can make it without it being devoid of information!

The reset upon completion is intentional, as there is (usually) more than one solution to be found. For the purposes of stats recording, only the first successful attempt is registered.

kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
Thank you. I do actually have another mode planned!
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
I wanted to keep it to operators everyone would understand, though it would be interesting to use exponents!

I am only recording successful attempts, which for the regular puzzle is around 33% so far today. I might compile stats on solve time too.

I'm still working on the difficulty levels. I think recognising factors of either the target number or nearby numbers is key.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
Thanks, all feedback is most welcome. I tested it with only a small number of people.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
You can click on numbers to remove them, so that you do not need to refresh the page.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
The rules are on the info page - maybe not that obvious.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
You won't like the extreme mode I have planned.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
The undo function is in the works.. to clear all you can refresh the page (or click the logo). There is an effect when a tile is filled but perhaps it needs to be more dramatic.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
There is a kids mode in the settings. Today's one is hard, I must admit (though it can be done in 3 steps) - they did well when I was testing the site!
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
Indeed. Everything old is new again. There should be 6 numbers - perhaps one is cut off. Are you on mobile?
kirchhoff··on Show HN: I made a little math game named Summle
Thanks. The backspace is something I considered, but it would have to function more like an undo button. You can refresh the page (or click the logo) to clear all the cells.

kirchhoff··on Akiyoshi's Illusion Pages
Another site in a similar vein, which is worth a mention.

kirchhoff··on Ask HN: Show me your half baked project
Cool site - I run a similar one. Would be interested in discussing something with you - my email is in my profile.
kirchhoff··on Show HN: A curated collection of special locations in Google Street View
I also enjoy looking for interesting spots on Google Maps.

I actually run another site [1] which is similar to this one, but dedicated to satellite imagery, and which lets you submit interesting views. It doesn't have a great deal of traffic but I do get a dozen or so submissions per day!
