This is a simple puzzle game where the aim is to slide pieces to make an image out of tiles.
Sliding puzzles are a common type of grid puzzle; information about them can be found on Wikipedia.
Control the tiles by using the W A, S, D or arrow keys on a keyboard.
This project can be built and run with the command
zig build run

zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast
Building the project requires the compiler to be version 0.15.1 at minimum, available from the download page on ziglang.org.
This project has been tested with on Windows 11; compilation of the game on other operating systems has not been tested.
The project is written in Zig and uses two Zig gamedev libraries: zglfw, zopengl. Both are fetched by the compiler the first time zig build run is invoked.
Nonetheless, both are available on GitHub at: https://github.com/zig-gamedev
The entire development of this app (basically) was streamed on Twitch and recordings were uploaded to YouTube at:
