So difficult but fun. Good job!

Congrats on getting married!!

Interesting idea, very difficult but could be fun.

Super difficult but I did get 4 over the course of a few minutes. I found I could really only make 1 guess in time. 30s would've felt a lot better prob. Maybe if each guess was 10s and so you had 60s to make 6 guesses. Yhe accomplishment when getting one is pretty great tho.

awesome! super hectic, the timer adds a ton of difficulty making it super satisfying when you get the right word. great work for how little time you had, too! congrats!

I took a similar route with a word game. Being an avid player of Wordle I thought this was a nice take on the game though I completely sucked at this. I'm really glad you provide a first good guess, I think it would have been impossible without that. Nice job!

I got one! Seriously good job, wordle has never been more hectic!

This is very hard. As a non english speaker i made one correct guess in like 5 minutes XD It was very satifying to make that correct guess.
Awesome submission!

This is way more hard but the price to retry is also cheap as ****. Somehow I spent way more time on this wordle than anyother ludum dare game - this is an ACTION game where reaction and memory matter. Nice work!

ahahaha this is so challenging!! as soon as your brain feels like it might be making a connection, the word flits away in the wind... goodbye...

I did manage to get one though, and I'm going to carry that victory in my heart for at least a week

I had a slight issue where it felt like my keyboard inputs weren't registering (usually at the start of a new word). Not that it mattered because most of the time I just sat there motionless because I couldn't think of a single word!

I like wordle games a lot, so I was excited to try this one. But turns out: it's sooo hard to even think of one fitting word in such a short time - and before I could enter a second one, the time was always already over.

I feel like this game suffers from the same problem as many others I've tried so far in this jam - 10 seconds feels much too short to fit a whole level of a game into it, so I can't enjoy the challenge because I'm always stressed out by the super short time limit.

Ouch, for a wordle player, this one is too hard to get right. But maybe next time I'll just make as many guesses as possible.

Oh my.. this is hard haha! But I love it! This is very well done for a game that is made on a planeflight with your new wife sitting next to you
I could not figureout the words though. I think that the words are a bit hard for people who's first language is not english.

Just curious: How did you generate the words?

Great game! Loved the additional pressure over regular wordle. Amazing way to practice too!

@wouter52 It's the same word list as the real Wordle! And yeah, a lot of the words are hard... I guess you just have to keep playing until you get a more doable one!

Well, I think there is a way lot of things worse to do on a long flight, than making a LD game :joy:
I tried but never manage to get at least one point. As english is not my native language, I guess it's normal :thinking:
Good job anyways!

This is fucking impossible lol. I got 1. ONE. Maybe the hardest LD game I have ever played

I think one thing that could make this game more balanced is allow the player to type nonsense and still verify it. Because 10 seconds is really not a lot of time to do your 2-3 queries AND make sure each query is actually a real word. If I could just put RSTAU to check which letters I think might be in there then I would have a much higher hit rate

Interesting but incredibly hard.
Didn't even get one word haha

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA











in case that isn't obvious, I'm loving this. Really nice take.

I've been at it for a while and still can't hit one. Super fun idea and a nice spin on an existing IP. Great work

Yeah, if you type you maybe have time for one informational guess at most, but usually to get them you need to get a good starting guess and then be clever with your follow up guess from there
