    Hi HN, I made a small game in Swift to visualize Nurikabe puzzles in 3D, using SceneKit and Metal shaders with some SwiftUI on top for buttons and hints. It's currently available for free in App Store. I've tried generating islands like this a few times before, where the whole board is just one big mesh, but I struggled with the shorelines (especially in corners) and also to make the islands somewhat unique and interesting.

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986.
