Wordy McWordface by mypalmike

[raw]
made by mypalmike for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

https://mypalmike.itch.io/wordy-mcwordface

Every ten seconds there is a new word. It is a simple matter of lining up with the dropped letters. Use bombs if you are running out of time. There's a bonus for anyone who gets through it. Restarting ("recovering") sets you back only one word.

No mobile input. Text renders small on FireFox. Use Chrome (sorry).

Kinda fun, but gets old fast. Pretty cool that it's rendered fully in svg.

A surprisingly difficult game, and a really creative idea. I also appreciate that you only move back one word when you mess up

Cool game. `[ "OR", "OPEN", "UP", "DEV", "TOOLS", "TO", "FIND", "THE", "WORD", "ARRAY", "AND", "STUMBLE", "UPON", "THE", "CHARACTER", "IN", "THE", "INPUT", "AREA", "ACCIDENTALLY"]`. Had a lot of fun this this one.

PS. SVG's are cool.

Great game !! really good concept. Got stuck in middle for a while but figured out the way later. Awesome work for a limited time jam. You should go with this concept further. Please do check out my submission as well.

You're 'knot' wrong! One issue is the currently dropping letter not clearing on restart, but maybe that just helps builds up the tension ;)

For such a simple game, it's really fun.

I like the primitive graphics and simple gameplay. It reminds me of old-skool games like the Atari 2600 and so forth. I didn't encounter any bugs and the controls worked smoothly enough. It was a challenge to know when to use bombs. Some music (even a simple BeepBox tune) would add a lot. Overall, not a bad entry. Nice work.
