Description:
 +
This game consists of 5 levels and a main hub. The player progresses through each level and solves puzzles in order to unlock the next level.
 +
Each level consists of 2 paths, a shorter path with less puzzles but they are harder in difficulty. And a longer path with more easier puzzles, but takes longer.
 +
There is a score system in place that is based off of time and number of puzzles solved.
 +
There are 3 difficulty variations to each puzzle.
 +
Here are a list of puzzles you'll see: '''Tangrams, Anagrams, Cryptogram, Image Scramble, Puzzle Template, Simon Says, Wire Connection, Word Passcode.'''

Existing project, Unity based game engine/side-scroller puzzle game written in C#. Description: This game consists of 5 levels and a main hub. The player progresses through each level and solves puzzles in order to unlock the next level. Each level consists of 2 paths, a shorter path with less puzzles but they are harder in difficulty.
