Slider Tutorial

For your second game, I thought it would be fun to make a game that I call "Slider."  Basically, this is a game that looks like the image below:

Slider Example

The idea of the game is to use the blank space to slide the numbers around until you have rearranged them to be in order from left to right and from up to down.  In other words, partway through the game, the example above might look like this:

Slider Example in the middle of the game

And like this at the end of the game:

Make sense?  I think you know what I mean, but if you don't, come and find me and I can show you how it works.  Alternatively, you can click here to play my version of the game.
