Pixic is a puzzle game about matching 4 squares together. It's inspired by Hexic HD for the Xbox 360, however some liberties were taken with the gameplay.
(most notably that its squares instead of hexagons)
You can rotate a 4x4 group of squares once, twice or as many times as you like! The rotation will stop at each change so you can move squares around the board to your liking. If you create a 3x3 group of squares with a different colored square in the center, you'll create a black gem. Matching 4 of these gives you higher score than regular squares. In Normal Mode, after 10 rounds bombs will start appearing every 5 rounds with 3 round timers. To defuse them, match them in a 4x4 group with 3 of the same colored squares (the bomb is a wildcard). However if you do not defuse it in time, that's GAME OVER.
In Hardcore Mode, bombs will appear after 1 round every 2 rounds and will have 5 round timers. This gives you more time to get rid of them, but they might feel like they're constantly dropping.

Updates
Version 2 - 8/12/2025
Added sprites for all the squares
Fixed issue with rotating Black Gems along the edges
Added White Gems (surround a block with 8 Black Gems!)
So good! I love the very satisfying gameplay! I think that if the squares had rounded edges, the game would be a little bit prettier.
