Do you mean the generated puzzles are now harder? Because I haven't changed that at all. You can verify it here: https://github.com/alabhyajindal/sudoku/commits/main/index.h...
I am making changes based on everyone's feedback here. The game is for fun and not meant to be the best Sudoku game online.
I understand that storing the puzzle is useful. I might implement it at a later time. For now, I would recommend you to refresh the page in case you get stuck on a puzzle.
Thanks for your feedback!
In Show HN: I Made a Sudoku GameThe sudoku logic is very simple: https://github.com/alabhyajindal/sudoku/blob/main/index.html...
An empty grid is randomly filled in till it's solved, then a fixed number of cells are randomly cleared. Thus it's very possible to create an ambiguous solution.
However I don't grade it against every sudoku app in history, I grade it against other handcrafted index.html sites. And on that metric I think it's pretty good.
Lots of room to extend functionality of course, but it seems like a project whose value was in the making, not the having.
