Polymer Picker - Christmas Edition (reprised and bugfixed)
Although I have written a blog post on this, I wanted to add a brief account about the Christmas edition of Polymer Picker.
As you may know, this was initially published in December 2023, and in retrospect, a rather hasty manner. To cut a long story short, it had a serious bug, which crashed the game if you attempted to play it more than once.
Unfortunately, I only discovered this bug one year later :-( As you can imagine, I feel so embarrassed at such a slipup.
I've therefore spent the last few weeks revisiting my code. and performing some further shoehorning to reduce memory space as much as possible, and thankfully, I was able to fix it.
I've uploaded this revised version to my website, and also here, so it can be played as intended.
There are also a number of other bug fixes, which I am planning to port across to the standard version of the game, for which I'll write a separate post.
You can read a longer version of the above at my blog, but I hope you give the game another go at this time of year, and hopefully have a better experience.
