About
SNAP is a pixel art style word puzzle game where player joins Jonny, the kindest man on Earth, and Tani, the Kindness spirit from the alternate dimension, to go on an adventure and save the world from the void of ignorance.
This project is a collaboration between the Singapore Kindness Movement and Singapore Polytechnic Design School's Diploma in Games Design & Development Course in 2014, to promote the kindness campaign,
The Nation of Kindness Starts with ONE.

This game was showcased during the Singapore Polytechnic Open House in 2016 and Singapore Polytechnic Design School Building’s opening event in 2015.
Word puzzle
SNAP uses words with missing letters and jumbled letters as the puzzle element and players have to figure the actual words and type them out within a time limit.
Unique input field
In Adobe Flash Player, the input field will only allow users to input when they click within the input field. As SNAP is a fast pace word puzzle game, it would be too hectic for players to always have to click using their mouse while rushing to finish typing a word on their keyboard before they hit the time limit. Thus, I coded a unique input field to skip the clicking and go straight to typing.
