Flag Fanatic Post-Jam Update Preview

Banner.png I've been cooking up a post-jam update for Flag Fanatic that'll make it a lot more user friendly as an educational tool while still keeping its challenging core gameplay!

The update will include a new practice mode that shows the semaphore symbol chart while you play, although it will disable score saving. The game will also now show you what the word you got wrong was and loop through its signals for you to reference!

I'm really excited to share the update once the jam's rating period ends!

I'm also taking suggestions for more words to add with the update, so if you have any feel free to leave a comment here or on the game's page!

Flag Fanatic Post-Jam Update

It includes these new features and changes: - Increased initial amount of time between signals to 4 seconds. - Adjusted UI to better fit 16:10 for Steam Deck. - The correct word is now displayed when answered incorrectly. - Practice mode has been added. - Shows references for the signals. - Does not save the score.

I hope everyone had a great Ludum Dare. The games I played and rated were all fantastic and I'm already looking forward to the next one! See ya next jam!
