Sandclick
Often when I feel depressed I have this imperious need to create something, anything. And those days, I'm not so well, so I code quite a lot. Let me introduce you to Sandclick, a stupid little game written in less than an hour in OCaml. The code is awful, but nevermind…
First, what does it look like ?

I bet most of you have already played to those games where you have to click on colored boxes on a grid to make them disappear. Sandclick is exactly this king of game, the only difference is in the way it deals with falling boxes.
Usually, in those games, when a colored block is above and empty space, it falls into it. In Sandclick, blocks fall like sand : grains can fall on the side, here is what happens when there is an empty space:
- if there is something above, this something falls down
- if not, then the content of what is on the top left or top right falls
And it goes on and on until it stabilizes.
