🍱 Features

• Cross-platform: macOS & iOS. tvOS can be easily added as an update.
• Extendable, data-driven architecture: you can easily add a new level without any programming (well, almost 😄).
• Six levels: from very trivial to insane difficulty level.
• Fully native implementation: Swift & SpriteKit only.
• One external dependency.

📝 Controls

iOS

On iOS all the controls are handled by swipe gestures. There are 4 gestures for swipe up, left, down and right. You will get the haptic feedback on the supported devices for when the direction of the wormy is changed. If you double swipe to a direction, the second swipe will be ignored.

macOS

On macOS all the controls are handled by arrow keys. There are 4 keys for turning to up ⬆️, left ⬅️, down ⬇️ and right ➡️ directions. If you double tap to a direction, the second one will be ignored. In order to pause/resume the game you need to tap on escape key.

🔗 Dependencies

The project currently has one dependency, which is device-kit framework.

🏗 How to create a new level

There is a possibility to create new levels, almost without any programming. Let's get started:

1. Create a new .sks file:

2. Give it a name:

3. Set the scene size to the following dimensions:

4. Add 3 tile maps to the scene and set their properties as follows:

5. Add a Cover node, copy-paste the Pause reference node and align everything as displayed in the following hierarchy:

7.Start editing Background & Walls tile maps by drawing tiles as you'd like:

8. Place the blue diamond tiles as food for wormy and red squares for spawn points:

9. Add new button nodes to access the level:

In Assets/Scenes/macOS/MainMenuScene-macOS.sks & Assets/Scenes/iOS/MainMenuScene-iOS.sks files with custom User Data key/value pair that conforms to the following scheme: levelName:YourLevelName.sks. Remember that you need to set the corresponding target membership options in File Inspector menu for each of the .sks files.

10. Done!

You have written zero lines of code and added a new level to the game.
