- Fixed the invert input setting

This update introduces a few QoL improvements from Proverbs:

• Added edge scrolling as an optional setting in the menu
  
• Added the option to invert left and right click
  
• Added mailing list and discord links to the settings menu

To celebrate the end of the year, I’m thrilled to announce 2024: Mosaic Retrospective, the third entry in the Mega Mosaic series!

This is a full 60,000 tile Mega Mosaic game and will be completely free for anyone to download and play!

As you solve the puzzle you'll reveal a stunning pixel art collage crammed with over 90 news stories from 2024, ranging from politics, war, science, pop culture, music and memes... just about anything and everything that made the headlines!

While the game is free, I have created an accompanying fundraiser for UNICEF. If you enjoy the experience, please consider donating to it and help me reach my £2,000 goal to support children worldwide. Every contribution counts!

Donate[www.justgiving.com] | Wishlist the game to get notified of its release on 26th Dec!

Recent changes to the Steam News feed mean that it might be harder for me to notify you that a game that you enjoyed has a sequel. To make sure you get all the latest news, you can sign up for the email newsletter[dividetheplunder.com].

Thank you for your support, and I hope you love solving the new Mega Mosaic!

Cheers,

This update fixes an issue that could prevent "Reset puzzle" from working.

This update addresses a couple of pieces of player feedback:

• The clear errors button will now appear after 3 errors have been made anywhere on the board, and will no longer require a filled region.
  
• Added more checks to ensure SFX and Music volume settings are saved correctly.

This update aims to make the save system more robust:

• The game now rotates a series of save files, and will roll back to an older one in the event of a player's save getting corrupted.
  
• There is a new "Recovery Mode" option in the settings menu in case all of a players saves are lost. This will fill in any regions that you've already unlocked achievements for.

Hey Zen Puzzlers!

I’m thrilled to announce that the demo for Proverbs is now live, just in time for Steam Next Fest (October 14th-21st)! If you enjoyed Mega Mosaic, you won’t want to miss out on this sequel.

Download Demo
🧩 Proverbs takes the mosaic puzzle formula you know and love to the next level. This time, you’ll be piecing together over 100 Dutch proverbs and idioms hidden within Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s 1559 painting Netherlandish Proverbs. You’ll reveal intricate illustrations while uncovering the meaning behind many age-old sayings that still have equivalents today.

⏳ The demo offers hours of calming, addictive puzzle-solving. Can’t wait to see what you think!

💡 New features and gameplay changes include:

• A new border system where clues can describe areas smaller than 9 tiles, adding an extra layer of challenge.
  
• A more balanced puzzle structure, with more evenly sized regions compared to Mega Mosaic's huge areas.
  
• Since clues don't bleed into neighbouring regions, each region is a self-enclosed puzzle in it's own right!
  
• Play through a huge 10%+ of the full puzzle in the demo, progress will carry forward into the full release!

Whether you like playing with your favorite podcast in the background or using the game’s soothing built-in renaissance soundtrack, Proverbs is designed to fit perfectly into your relaxation time.

Head over to the Proverbs store page, download the demo, and don’t forget to wishlist and follow the game for all the latest updates!

Enjoy and happy puzzling!

P.S. With the advent of Valve changing how demos work on Steam, it's now possible to review the Proverbs demo independently of the main game. All reviews help push visibility of the demo, so any feedback added in this way, positive or negative, is very welcome!

Hello there meditative puzzlers,

I have some exciting news to share with you today! I'm delighted with how many of you have played and enjoyed Mega Mosaic. I created the game for myself; something huge to chip away at for hours on end. I wasn't sure when I published the game whether it would appeal to anyone but me, so I'm delighted to see that so many people enjoyed it!

With that in mind, I wanted to follow up Mega Mosaic, with an improved, more tightly-focused sequel. Here's a teaser of the puzzle regions that you'll need to solve:

Can you guess which famous painting the puzzle is based upon?
