Hi I don't have a specific script to point you at, but what I would suggest that you might do is to do a little research in how to write a puzzle game generically. The reason that I am saying that is that are different "scripts" for different kinds of games. For two dimensional puzzle games where you need to generate different tile sets each time,using WME you need to pull a bit of a stunt because WME only supports one - dimensional arrays.

It's not any problem to create multi-dimensional array via single-dimension one.

Here is the example of two-dimensional array MxN.

Code: WME Script

1. var M = 100;
2. var N = 100;
3. var SomeArray = new Array (M);
4.  
5. for (var i = 0; i<M; i=i+1)
6. {
7.   SomeArray[i] = new Array(N);
8. }

For working with this array can be used such functions:

Code: WME Script

1. function Set(var x, var y, var value)
2. {
3.   var a = SomeArray[x];
4.   a[y] = value;
5.   SomeArray[x] = a;
6. }
7.  
8. function Get(var x, var y)
9. {
10.   var a = SomeArray[x];
11.   return a[y];
12. }
