Undo, redo, and snapshot for much more games

Hi everyone! Welcome to Puzzle Express 2.4. This update focuses on quality of life changes.

↩️ Overhauled save system

More games now support move history: Arrange, Beehive, Bridges, Circuit, Connect, Cross Sums, Map, Slide, Solve, Tiles, Untangle!

In addition, there's now also Redo and Snapshot actions. Snapshot saves a checkpoint of your board so you can quickly come back to it. Useful for doing trial and error.

⚙️ Difficulty adjustments

  • Arrange - All difficulties are easier, now has Very Hard. Daily now uses Hard instead of Medium
  • Ninjas - Hard and Very Hard are easier, now has Diabolical difficulty
  • Memory - +1 pair for Easy, -1 pair for Medium
  • Pandas - Small is easier, Medium is easier, Large is 14x14 -> 11x13

🌱 Other changes

  • Added option to reset a mode's best score in settings
  • Added loading indicators
  • Added bottom bar to contain game actions. Might take some getting used to
  • Improved overall design
  • Card games - New "Enlarge cards" option
  • Bridges - Improved controls, fixed fast drags
  • Guess - New vertical layout
  • Mines - Improved design
  • Pandas - Fixed X marks showing false errors
  • Pyramid - Improved match animation
  • Unblock - New wooden look
  • Word - Improved feedback on Hard mode, can now be shared
  • Removed Mosaic. Since its removal from feed and daily, Mosaic has been finished only five times. I wouldn't have bothered removing it but the new save system necessitated a migration effort that I figured was not worth it.
