The gap
Sliding puzzles need levels whose par is truly minimal and an engine where every special tile interacts correctly with every other.
Game templates
The complete source of Glazewick, an ice-sliding puzzle with fish to collect, cracked ice, pushable blocks and warp holes; the smoke test proves all 24 pars by breadth-first search and a bot clears a floe.

What it is
This template gives you a tested move engine, a solver that proves par, and a polished touch-ready game around them.
How you use it
Unzip, serve the folder and open index.html, then edit game.js; npm test plays it again in headless Chrome.
Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with a smoke test whose bot plays it.
Use it when
Built for
Each floe is a few strings of characters (# rock, , snow, x cracked, B block, 1 and 2 warps); run the solver to get its par.
applyMove is pure: it clones the state and returns the path and events, so the animation, undo stack and solver all reuse it.
Plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D with no runtime dependencies; open index.html through any static server and edit game.js.
A headless Chrome test loads the game, checks the console, presses keys and taps, and lets the built-in bot play a run to its result screen.
