PathRush: a new path puzzle every day, playable right in the feed

Just shipped PathRush a daily path-filling puzzle built on Devvit Web (React + Hono + Redis). Connect 1 → 2 → 3, fill the whole grid in one stroke. It's got per-level leaderboards, a coin economy, 70+ cosmetic skins, and full UGC: players publish their own puzzles as real posts via runAs: 'USER'. Solvability is validated server-side before anything goes live. Took a couple of review rounds to get the inline-splash scroll behavior and UGC attribution right happy to share what I learned. Feedback welcome!

PathRush: a new path puzzle every day, playable right in the feed

I built a daily path puzzle that lives entirely inside Reddit no app, no download. Each day you get a fresh grid: connect the numbered checkpoints in order (1 → 2 → 3…) with one continuous line that fills every cell. Sounds easy, gets devious fast. There are leaderboards for every puzzle, daily streaks, a coin shop with 70+ skins, and you can even build and publish your own puzzles for everyone else to solve. Tap a post, solve, beat the clock. That's it. Would love your feedback on the difficulty curve

PathRush — a path-drawing puzzle game built with Devvit Web

Just got approved! 🎉

PathRush is a tiny puzzle game where you connect numbers 1 → 2 → 3 → ... while filling every cell on the grid, living entirely inside Reddit posts.

**Features:**

- 🎯 Daily challenge that rotates every 24h via a scheduled cron

- ✨ Players can create their own puzzles — each becomes a Reddit post

- 🪙 Coin economy that rewards creators for plays + positive reviews

- 🏆 Per-puzzle leaderboards, "Beat the creator's time" hooks

- 🎨 Skins (Common → Rare → Epic → Legendary)

- 🔥 Trending levels surface community-made content

- 📊 Creator dashboard with reviews, plays, earnings, rank

**Tech notes:**

- Devvit Web (React 19 + Vite + Hono + tRPC)

- All state in Redis (no external services)

- Hamiltonian-path puzzle generator (Warnsdorff backtracking)

- Source maps stripped from production builds

Was a fun stack to work with. Took ~3 weeks solo. Would love eyes from this crowd — found anything broken? Have ideas for what to ship next?
