Title: Hello, HN - I wanted to share this puzzle game I made during my vacation.<p>I&#x27;m rather fond of the pipes puzzle where your goal is to restore a scrambled network of connections by rotating tiles. It&#x27;s usually played on a grid of squares and this all started when I decided to make a programmatic solver for that kind of puzzle. Then I realized that with some minor changes the solver could generate new puzzle instances. I thought about what kind of puzzle to make and someone suggested a hexagonal grid. Adapting the generator wasn&#x27;t too hard but then I had to create a way to play this variant. So I did just that =).<p>I find hexagonal pipes a bit more difficult than the square variant because there&#x27;s a larger variety of possible tile shapes. For an extra challenge I implemented wrap mode where the board can connect to itself (right to left and top to bottom), so there are no convenient outer walls to start from.<p>The site is made with Svelte Kit, its code is available on github at &lt;<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;gereleth&#x2F;hexapipes" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;gereleth&#x2F;hexapipes</a>&gt;.<p>Hope you enjoy playing =).
