Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. I've just reached beta in my game BoxByte Lyte. -What is it- It's a free 3d arcade game for hardcore players that uses color matching in interesting ways. Also it's a one button game, well movement and one button. Cool huh? The final release will be free too. -What I need- This is a very challenging game, so I really need to balance the difficulty so that it's still hard but not impossible.

Sprig is a tile based game engine made by Hack Club that's like Scratch's older brother but has it's own set of unique limitations.

I made a version of PacMan inside it that has randomly generated mazes every time and mostly works well!
