Overflowing Palette WebGame - Final Update: New Mechanic, New Levels, Endless Mode, New UI & Options


Full Patch Notes

New Mechanic: Tools

  • Tools do not consume moves but have a limited number of uses.
  • They allow swapping two adjacent tiles, but only if they are different colors.
  • Three types of tools:
    1. Swaps tiles vertically only.
    2. Swaps tiles horizontally only.
    3. Swaps tiles both ways (vertically and horizontally).

New Levels

  • +5 new levels in standard mode.
  • +4 levels for the new tool mechanic (under the new "Advanced" category in level selection).

Endless Zen Mode

  • Auto-generated levels without a move counter.
  • Choose board size, number of colors, and difficulty (which affects how shuffled the board starts).
  • Option to skip a level if you don’t like the generated result.
  • After completing a level, you can start another with the same settings.
  • You can share completed levels with others. (Your number of moves will be set as a goal for others to beat.)

New UI & Optimizations

  • Level previews now show board size and author (if applicable).
  • Completed levels now display the time taken to solve them.
  • New settings menu with three tabs:
    1. General – Change language.
    2. Background settings – Added 4 new backgrounds, toggle overlay and distortion effects.
    3. Colors – Now 8 colors; you can also rename them.
    4. Gameplay – Options to disable dynamic tile backgrounds and adjust highlight intensity.
  • Level import preview – See a level’s layout before deciding to play it.
  • No more manual refresh – Saving or resetting settings no longer requires reloading the game.
