There's a new qrostar game. If it's anything like Hanano Puzzle and Jelly no Puzzle, it should be worth trying for fans of puzzle games.

You can get it here
(pay-what-you-want, only for Windows)

Game rules are the same as in the first Hanano Puzzle (which supposedly is not required playing first). Move blocks left or right, or swap two adjacent blocks. Goal is to get all blocks to flowers. It's harder than it sounds.

Based on a look at the first few levels it seems that undo is now infinite, unlike in the first two games.

For reference here are the earlier discussion threads:
Hanano Puzzle
Jelly no Puzzle

I knew that name sounded familiar. Turns out forum member and well known Let's Player ThemsAllTook has done an LP of the Jelly No Puzzle one. Link to playlist

I was pretty surprised to see this game, since Tatsunami was already working on a puzzle game with new mechanics that involve pipes and balls (based on the screenshots he has posted on his website).

These tweets seem to tell the origin story of Hanano Puzzle 2:

All done! Level 33 was a real challange. Hanano was just the right level of challanging for me right now, with bite sized levels where just a few moves constitutes the solution.

Finished the last few levels myself. Still just as fun as the other games in the series.

Hah, I found 33 one of the easier ones because it's so heavily constrained that you can probably tell when you're on the right track. 26 was my nemesis: last finished level, and one with many seemingly feasible approaches.

If you're thinking of playing Hanano (flowers bloom) I think starting with Hanano 2 will be an easier experience.

It has 35 levels, which are not the same as those in Hanano 1.

Qrostar is on twitter

No, the puzzles in Hanano 2 don't overlap with the original set. But I recommend playing Hanano 2 first. The difficulty curve of it is better designed.
