Gemswap mini-game

I decided to work on a mini-game. It'll be a match-3, currently called Gemswap. I was trying to think of something that would fit in Stella's cottage, as it will be the first interior I do, but I was coming up blank. I decided match-3 games are decently fun.


A game within a game... but at least this game is much more do-able.

So far what I got working:
  • Generates a random board
  • The board generated does not have any matches right off the bat
  • You can swap the gems around properly
What I'll need to work on:
  • Removing matches and adding them to your score
  • When a match is removed, the board is filled up again
I'm not sure if I want to do a game where the game is over when a timer runs out, or if I want to do one that ends when there is no more moves. 

After I determine that, I'd need to work on those specific tasks. And once that is complete, I can work on prettier gems, particle effects, a graphical interface, and other fancy stuff.
