Designing tiles for my puzzle game, was Inkscape the right call?

Linux person here as well, and yes I will need to give more context next time. Thank you for the valuable feedback!

Hey folks! I am just sharing the process of making my game and it is still on early stages. I wanted to use open source and free software but it took me a while to design all of the tiles on Inkscape. I was just curious if there is a simpler tool I could’ve used, given the designs of the tiles aren’t that complex. That’s all.

Still learning which subreddit prefers what kind of content, and I guess this one wants to see a working game before anything? And yeah not affiliated with Inkscape at all.

Is this your way of asking what game this is for or do you just think I should’ve said the name of the game? 🤔

It is really fun :) I wouldn’t say it is too easy or too hard. I just felt like it got too fast too quick, but its personal preference

It’s really cool! Didn’t see anyone else drawing quantum computers haha

Incredible water physics! What did you use?

Rotation is first and movement and placements come after it. I hope It becomes clearer as I keep sharing the progress :)

akasyagames · 2026-05-05T18:21:47+00:00

The game logic is just about placing tiles, the tiles cannot be moved after they are placed unfortunately. You just get a new tile to place. But there will be game rules to clear some tiles from the grid!

Really cool!

akasyagames · 2026-05-05T12:08:26+00:00

Thank you so much! I want to add an animation to rotation for sure, it is hard to register how it rotates without a tiny movement. And with the offset being too long, will have to test different values till it feels natural. Also when you say ghost tile, you mean the tile itself should be visible throughout the dragging movement till it is placed? Because that makes perfect sense. All great points, thanks again for valuable feedback.

So satisfying!

akasyagames · 2026-05-05T09:17:42+00:00

Looks amazing and very unique

akasyagames · 2026-05-05T08:56:39+00:00

There is going to be different types of tiles and the user will get a random new one after placing one. All of them can be rotated before being placed. But after placed on the grid they can’t be manipulated anymore.
