subaku is a puzzle game. Tap a tile to reduce its value and increase the surrounding tiles by one. Match three in a row, column or diagonal to clear them from the board.

In puzzle mode the goal is to clear the board in as few moves as possible. subaku comes with 100 different puzzles for you to try to master. Puzzles can be completed by trial and error, but meeting the target score is going to take a little thinking.

In endless mode the board starts with a 4 in the center. Try to make as many matches as you can without letting the board clear. But watch out, every five moves something will happen to try to get in your way.

Hey all, this is Eric, the maker of the game. Lots of hours and long nights went into making subaku, and I really hope you will check it out. Honestly, there is little that is cooler than having someone play something you made. (Them liking it is the coolest, but that is another story entirely.) I am just a guy who has always wanted to make a game, and despite (or perhaps thanks to) having a "real" job, a "part-time" job, and a wife and kid, I managed to do it. So at the very least, I hope that any of you who have yourselves been toying with the idea of making a game realize that if I can get a product out the door, you can too.

I hope you will have fun. Thanks for playing.

Ooh this looks pretty neat. Not at an iDevice right now though.

I just redeemed the first code, gonna try and report back later once it's finished downloading.

I redeemed the second code. Very eager to try it out. Will give a shot later today.

Thanks much for the code. I played the tutorial and some puzzle levels and am having some issues. Maybe I'm being dense but I don't understand the win condition for a level. I had a level where it says "target 5" and I didn't win the level when I had 5 tiles present, or when all the numbers added up to 5. Is there a way the game's feedback could be improved to make the win condition on the puzzles clearer?

The win condition in puzzle mode is always to clear the board. Sorry that that was not made clear!
The target is the number of moves you want to clear the board in. Your score is the number of moves it takes.
