Tilesish

Tilesish is a game I created in the fall of 2021 for one of my ATLAS classes, “Game Audio,” during my master’s. While roughly inspired by the game “Tiles” by NYT Games, it also very much has its own flair to it. The game consists of 16 tiles, each with 3 layers of a particular shape and color. The player clicks on tiles to match them up based on matching top-layer shape and color, which then removes that shape from the selected tiles. The player then gets more points as they combo their layer removals together. Because the player can combo an odd number of tiles together, it’s on the player to play the hand that was dealt to them the best. Sometimes, if you don’t play the hand right, you won’t actually get to clear every tile. Clearing every tile is so rare that in fact, it gives you a massive bonus in points. Don’t be discouraged if you can’t clear every tile though, you can still keep shooting for a new high score!
