Bonus trivia (intended to be read after video):
- one of the event organizers came up with an alternate idea for this game but didn't beat this one. I'd be curious to know the idea :)
- the name 'Minesplitter' might've made more sense for this game, but the semi-pun of the title is really too good to not use. But it would fit more in a fortune-telling-scrying game
- the ending chime comes from the one dumb minesweeper meme original track I made basically. - Ігри
It's that easy, huh?
how'z ur progress on yourrr sendding mee a milllon dollers
ill do it but first explain why you painted yourself and your room black and white to take your avatar picture
@@IcelyPuzzles there was no lingo yet, so I had to find somewhere else to direct all the chaotic energy

i used rope to tie my pants and pants to tie my shoes
edited cause i messed up the quote, it was rope not shoe lace
Oh well let’s make icely do a puzzle of programming lol

I played this one and I have to say it was probably my favourite confounding calendar game (partially because it wasn't just another sokoban game)
icely really out here attacking everyone who uses a trackpad
He gets a D for accessibility.
I'm so curious what the secret is lol
@@rogueabyss you can right click and scroll down _ever so slightly_ (just rotating your fingers is often more than enough) to set it to 0.5. I haven't been able to manage 0.25 yet

hint: You have to use the keyboard
spoiler:
The keys s, d, f do the same thing as the mouse buttons.
@@laula813 ohhhhhh that's why certain letters are underlined in the instructions
It feels weird to have mines next to empty spaces
i love hearing you laugh at your own joke at 9:42 it's so good, and you earned it
I played this, it's really good although it's possible for someone to discover a later mechanic early on and ruin the surprise (happened to me with scrolling)
Make a minesweeper but the mines are played by Stockfish, so your 1s are Pawns, your 2s are Knights, etc. Mines are all Knights, and blow up when attacking.
there is a minesweeper chess meme floating around lmao

what you said at the end is too relatable
Had to play through it myself before watching the video beyond the intro. Actually plugged a USB mouse into my laptop to finish it, though I did end up spotting the trick to the non-mouse solution later (the clue isn't all that obvious).
That was actually an awesome little experience. Not sure if it was the "laptop secret", but I found that the s,d, and f keys act as left, middle, and right click. Definitely didn't find that through brute forcing keys after the middle click step. Also I remember there being a minesweeper roguelike but it being extremely subpar for it's expectations, so if you ever do end up making one please learn from whatever went wrong there.
I actually played this since release, I tried it for the fun of it thinking it was (in fact) minesweeper with a cursed twist somewhere
I couldn't figure out what was I meant to do after reaching like 7/10 mines point until a few days later when I noticed the "left something right" in the instructions and immediately deduced it was the middle click, after that I finished it all rather quickly but it was still an interesting alternative on probabilities being used inside Minesweeper
something interesting for you that I got from some minesweeper reddits, some mine sweepers that consider themselves "no guess" can have positions where you must guess, and in them, if you pick a cell that has the lowest chance of being a mine it will never be a mine. This lets them have seeming 50/50's and preserves that horrible feel of classic minesweeper guessing, while also adding the extra layer of complexity you were talking about where you need to figure out which cell is least likely to have a mine
Do you have a link? I want to check it out
The .5 acts as a "50/50 idk" flag
3:15 Me too that’s why I switched from a computer science to informatics major in college.
Im pretty sure you just took a one and painted the top red to make that flag
oh
lmao
1:50ish damn, Sokoban; the amount of nostalgia suddenly makes me feel older than, well, I feel.
Oh god this one

I got stuck at averaging, but to be fair I don't think it was possible on my laptop. I liked the logic of the final mines
Rouge like rpg minesweeper? Wow!
We need to spam programming segments in new puzzle games so that Icely can't escape it
yrwbetbhytsrebthsbrbe
Okay wow holy crap- That was extremely fun to watch
Also the idea at the end with rougelite sounds great on paper though I am not sure what to expect from it which adds to the idea honestly
heptaveegesimal made another minesweeper advent calendar
Absolutely brilliant! One of my fav youtubers by far
Finger Reveal Advanced
That last step confused me because I tried scrolling on an unmarked cell
Turns out there has to be some sort of flag on it to scroll, and I only figured that out when I tried scrolling down to the comments for an answer because I got so stuck xD
Good puzzle though, that was fun!
I also figured out the 0.25 and 0.75 thing completely on accident while clicking through all the buttons on my keyboard to figure out if there was another button I could press
and as I was going sequentially I pressed S and D fast enough together that it marked it as 0.25
Awesome puzzle! A bit loud, so the first "goal" gave me a jumpscare. I got stuck at 19/20 for 5 minutes lol
I want the minesweeper bullet hell roguelike.
you should make more games like this, it's really cool
Have you looked into Minesweeper playthroughs focusing on the Mastery statistic? It's basically a metric for how many games out of the last 100 you've played were wins, and utilises a lot of the exact thing you find interesting: figuring out the tile with the lowest mine probability (although probability of progress is another important metric to consider as well). I highly recommend the YT channel Mine Buoy for more content about this playstyle, I think you would greatly enjoy their videos.
This is relatable...
omg, that's such a good troll. (Wish I found that during while i was browsing the confounding calendar and not by video.... not sure how I missed your entry..... sorry....)
I mean, you took all those cursed game energy and put it into lingo maps instead, I think that's fair....... walc
I know it's been a while since you made this, but there's a weird quirk where if you ctrl+tab away from the browser tab with the game running (at least on Firefox on Mac OS, my current environment), it sometimes unmarks a cell in the process
Oh hey, I remember playing and solving that one! Good game.
mine is just a mine, you cant say its a half!
Another cursed day, another cursed minesweeper
Ah yeah I remember beating this.
i figured out scrolling by messing around with controls while stuck before 20 minues, but i had to look at this video to figure out what the 2 buttons rule was...
Problem here is an empty tile without a number is a zero and can't have mines next to it
Idea: a "make your minesweeper" minesweeper. If there is something wrong with the logic so like theres a 3 and has 4 mines or a 2 and theres only 1 mine and all the others are safe
Nice to hear the thing I was stuck on.
(how to do 0.25 after you've figured out how to do 0.4)
Was a design-mistake
Really enjoyed your Confounding Calendar entry!
thank you, I liked playing yours too :)
amazing game thank you
The difficulty was perfect, sure you get something's up when you notice that some ??s have turned into "Mi???? ?????" but you can only really understand it once you realize your only options left are % gambles at mines.
I wouldn't change a thing.
Yes, I accidentally found the scrolling first but the fact you still have to say "all the remaining cells are the same fraction" means you still have to think once you get to the scroll section.
"3/6 is obvious 1 1/2" 🤦♂️
took like 50 minutes on solving all of it, the best hint is to see the covered clue.
Chess Bombs Advances
I hate this so much. Awesome submission!
14:44 Why wouldn't you consider that to be correct though? Because there is no way of knowing it is 27 mines total yet?
yeah it only says "all" at the very last step
Does the non-scrolling method involve the SDFG keys?
would buttons on the side of the mouse change the i axis
Can it support phones next time it gets an update, the tiles looked a bit too stretched out on my screen.

I got to 19/20 on laptop.
Spoiler warning…
Last chance…

Noticed the d was underlined and gave it a go. The placement of S D F was really clever, I just didn’t think to push them both at once and had to refer to the video. Also, I figured the last hint had something to do with scrolling, but I was dumb and only experimented on blank tiles. The adaptations you made for laptop were very fair, I was just too stupid
What did you use to make this cool game?

Rather than just putting the url for those sites in the video, you should also consider putting them in the description or a pinned comment or something.
Honestly, anyone who knows how to program is a wizard in my eyes. I've only ever managed to make crappy unfinished games using drag-and-click in game maker and clickteam fusion. Whenever I tried to learn a language I always get overwhelmed and quit. It also doesn't help that there are a million languages and engines.
It's part of why prefer designing abstract strategy games because all you need is a rule set and mspaint.
I am interested in becoming a teacher and I've always managed to simplify science classes and explain techy shit to anyone interested if you want to get into it just lemme kno

This game is unbeatable! I don't have a middle mouse button.
it IS beatable
There are keyboard shortcuts, underlined letters in rules
@@benjaminwood8736Don't have a keyboard either though.

Fascinating you were able to create this if you hate programming. I think most that hate programming wouldn't be able to.

Dont scroll to it please (immediately scrolls to game play) [im ganna be honest... i wasnt the one that did that]
How the absolute frick will this work on mobile and laptops without mouses?
Everybody's gonna be complaining about that
HAND REVEAL??
HAND REVEAL. (probably...)
On an unrelated note, I actually had fun playing this. I PROBABLY found the twist too soon but damn was it still fun.
I hate using middle mouse and scroll wheel in games; both of those break down mechanically on a mouse super quick, and become very unreliable.
Also I accidentally started this comment with "I hate you" because homophone.
17:42 I've played a tetris bullet hell once. My attention spam decreassed in hours after that :)
Also, that is relatable. Coding sucks. Why?!

Icely's mouse is black, confirmed
I have a touchpad lmao how do I even play this
5:53 Wait that's cheating! There's a counter for how many mines you flagged correctly so you can just flag every cell and know which ones are mines based on if the counter goes down.
what
@@IcelyPuzzles Later in the video you ended up showing that you accounted for that...
hint for 0.25 on laptop?
everything is possible without even a click on the laptop, if you've found that already, think about how "0.5" is inbetween two other things, and where inbetween for 0.25 would be located
@@IcelyPuzzles i got it, thanks
3:15 me irl

Why has this been downvoted so hard?
