After 20 years of web dev I decided to give a bit of game dev a try so decided to start with phaser js. Been pretty fun and easy to work with. Looking forward to make more games soon.

Have you played original minesweeper? The trick is that you never lose on your first click, because set-up happens on your first click.  
Unfortunately, I lost your game on the first click, two times in the row. That is not fun.

Ha, yea, I guess not in a while, was just kind of just going from memory as a test run with phaser for my first game. Good catch though, I’ll get that in soon. Actually, I need to also figure out a better way to distribute the mines as they seem to get clumped up a bit too much on the higher difficulty levels.

The game looks great. I noticed that I got up from my desk in the middle of a game and when I came back, the timer was blank. Maybe it rolled over to four digits?

yea, seems like an overflow issue, thx for letting me know. Just pushed up a fix along with some other updates for better gameplay.
