Sudoku
Sudoku App
This project started as a school assignment to build a simple Sudoku
game, but it quickly evolved into something more. The original goal was to create a functional
app where users could play Sudoku, but I wanted to go beyond just the basics. I decided to
incorporate dynamic puzzle generation and add a feature that highlights mistakes, so users
would get instant feedback as they played. I also realized that adding customization options
like different themes would make the experience more personal and enjoyable.
I expanded the project to include a "How to Play" page to guide new players and make learning
the rules easier. Then, I pushed it further by introducing visual feedback that changes
depending on whether the input is correct or incorrect, helping users track their progress.
To keep the game fresh and engaging, I built a system that randomly generates puzzles with
unique solutions every time.
With Flutter's flexibility and third-party packages for puzzle generation, I was able to create an
app that’s both fun and educational.
Sudoku Gameplay:
- 9x9 Sudoku Grid: A traditional Sudoku grid divided into 3x3 subgrids, offering a familiar and structured gameplay experience.
- Dynamic Puzzle Generation: Automatically generates solvable and unique puzzles for a fresh challenge every time.
- Input Validation: Ensures no duplicate numbers are entered in rows, columns, or subgrids to maintain puzzle integrity.
- Visual Feedback: Incorrect entries are highlighted in red, while completed puzzles are marked in green to give users clear feedback.
Customization and Guidance:
- Multiple Themes: Choose from various themes such as Normal, Dark, and Vintage to personalize the app’s appearance.
- How to Play: A step-by-step tutorial with images to guide new users through the basics of Sudoku gameplay.
- Settings Page: Customize game settings, including theme switching and other preferences, to tailor the app to your needs.
Technologies Used:
- Flutter & Dart: Cross-platform compatibility ensures the app works seamlessly on both iOS and Android devices.
- Sudoku Solver & Generator: Utilizes the `sudoku_solver_generator` library for automatic puzzle generation and solution validation.
- State Management: Uses the `provider` package to manage state efficiently, ensuring smooth gameplay and interactions.
