P. Story +Dated: 2020-06-03 + +Das Puzzle Spiel (dps) is a LaTeX package for creating a puzzle, a message +actually, and a series of questions and answers. The document consumer +matches the questions with the answers. With each match, another letter +appears in the puzzle. Upon completion of all questions, the message hidden +in the puzzle is revealed. The puzzle is primarily designed for the screen, +but you can optionally create the game for paper. DPS was created as a +learning tool. + +What's new (2020-06-03) Several options usebtnappr and uselayers. These are +to support the creation of extended questions; the latter uses layers to +typeset the questions into the document; the former uses icon appearances to +do the same. Also, new is you can optionally create a sideshow. A sideshow is +a tiled graphic that is progressively revealed as the player works through +the puzzle. There is an additional option of having the tiled graphic appear +randomly in the designated area and have a bubble sort rearrange the tiles +into their proper order. There are many other changes and bug fixes. + +The package should work for users of dvips->distiller, pdflatex, lualatex, +and xelatex. The usebtnappr option is available to all workflows. The +uselayers option requires the dvips->distiller workflow and the aeb_pro +package. + +Now, I simply must get back to my retirement. + +D. P.
