Flower Flood 馃尯 - An adaptation of the Flood puzzle made popular by Simon Tatham. No client certificates required, and should work on even the most basic Gemini clients! That said, it looks really good with ANSI colours on.

The rate limiting has been fixed; it should be a lot more forgiving now, while still catching actual spam. 馃憤 路 5 days ago

The game seems pretty popular so far, so much that the rate limiting is starting to get a bit too much 馃槄 I'll try and fix it up in the next few days, hope you all are enjoying it though! 路 5 days ago

@danrl there is rate limiting, but the limit is one click per second. As long as you make sure that you don't click too fast, it should keep you going steadily. I can always revise this if it ends up getting too popular! 路 6 days ago

@gritty I had to think about it at first, until I realized that literally all you need is a flood-fill algorithm on a 2d array鈥攖raverse the garden, keeping a list of nodes to check and a list of nodes already checked. It was actually really fun to put together. 路 6 days ago
