I'm glad you like it so much. I will definitely keep this online and in the same place, so feel free to come back and play it any time you like. Hopefully, at some point I will get a "finished product" out the door that you can download as a standalone application. I expect it will have a play mode very similar to proto4.

This is dangerously addictive. I managed to get up to the 80Ks and I stopped because I had to do something else... but I'm usually blocked in the high 20Ks. I hope you'll keep that version alive somewhere. I wouldn't change a thing to the gameplay and the controls, but having played maybe too much of it, I had a few ieas. The active block cursor should be thicker maybe, and it would be fun to keep track of a few things: the highest number of cascading swaps in one move, the highest value of any one swap so far in the game or the White count and the last swap points should remain greyd out... Have you ever considered putting an Undo move? It would be nice when blocked to be able to go back by one swap and try another move... Fantastic addictive game! Proto04 would be worth pursuing as a product in its own right, a sort of graphical interactive Sudoku. I just wanted to let you know what I thought.
