RubySquare
The board, from every angle.
Screenshots, concept art, palettes and the odd hidden pattern — a visual tour of Ruby Square's seven-year design history, straight from the build and the sketchbook.
Gameplay, unretouched
The same frames Google Play visitors see — real boards, real states, no staged renders.
More than just squares
Late-stage boards occasionally assemble into shapes that feel deliberate — pixel nods, optical illusions, perfect symmetry. Tap a tile to declassify it.
31 hidden patterns documented by the community so far — nobody official will confirm the count.

Gems & shaders
The board ships in multiple finishes — matte minimalism for purists, faceted ruby glass for the dramatic. Both render identically sharp on OLED.
Anti-glare shading
Highlights sit at 12° so tiles read as physical objects without harsh reflections.
OLED-true blacks
Night mode uses real #000000 fields — zero pixel glow on OLED screens.
Consistent semantics
Each color maps to a fixed cell role across every skin — no re-learning between palettes.
Zero performance cost
Skins are texture swaps, not shaders — same 120 Hz, same battery profile.
The brand underneath
One square, rotated
The icon is the game: a red square frozen mid-rotation on a golden-ratio grid.

Boards that never shipped
Concept explorations from the design archive — alternate palettes, experimental layouts, abandoned ornament.
The icon, evolving
v1.0 — flat ruby square
v1.2 — rotation marker added
v1.3 — faceted depth pass
Today — the definitive square
Pretty, but does it play?
Screenshots flatter everything. The real test is one tap, one rotation, one solved board.
