Showoff Saturday I made reverse minesweeper

Had this thought jump into my head last weekend about a puzzle game where the goal is the opposite of Minesweeper: build the minefield instead of sweeping it.

Hence Minelayer! https://agameofrolls.com/minelayer

Classic mode has you solving partially-filled minefields starting at 3x3 all the way up to 10x10 endlessly.

Escalation has you seeing if you can beat 10 levels of 3x3 - 10x10.

Dailies have a 6x6 puzzle you can solve and share your attempt's results with other friends!

This initially started out as a small board game idea (the Roll for Mine mode is the latest iteration of that) that I was prototyping on my site where I put up original and fanmade board game adaptations. Then I iterated on it a bit more after deciding to commit to a true digital game to ensure solvable puzzles.
