Remember when you were a kid (if you are as ancient as I) and there were these cheap plastic puzzles of sliding squares that you were suppose to get in the right order?

Well this is that ;)

Enjoy

Wow, great game! Reminds me when I was young too.

Great implementation! Took me 168 moves - I know I'm a bit rusty ;)

As I recall there were only <edit>15</edit> slats in the square puzzles I ever solved Posted Image

In my mind it was so clearly a 5x5 grid, but in looking for a picture to turn into an icon they were all as you said 4x4.

I remember that I had two of these puzzles. One was 4x4 and the other was 4x6 or even 4x7.

Nice!

Eukalyptus made some similar with pictures.

You need a picture with 440x440 pixels.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to
build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe
trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
So far, the Universe is winning.

On my XP, I believe the $BS_BITMAP in the GUICtrlCreateButton function was hiding all the numbers on the buttons.

I continued to play with your script and swap these to commands around, Scramble() and GUISetState(): and,

added colour.

Topher, good job.

On my XP, I believe the $BS_BITMAP in the GUICtrlCreateButton function was hiding all the numbers on the buttons.

I continued to play with your script and swap these to commands around, Scramble() and GUISetState(): and,

added colour.

Thanks.

I played with it a bit, opting for the black and red digits of the most common versions of the physical puzzle.

Thanks for the knowledge on $BS_BITMAP

Great! Looks even better - more like the one I had when I was young (so long ago ;)).

The new version seems to be even faster: I only needed 47 moves.

Removed slide animation. Took too long.

If you have time, see if you could add frame rate independent animations.
