How many hours did it take  to code this game?

Submitted

This was neat! A little bare-bones, but that sort of added to the charm!

Surprisingly good for a game made in just 2 days. It's straightfoward, and can be used as a destresser. But there are really few words that has few letters, at least from my english vocabulary. I'm from France and I only learned english from Youtube and other english language sites.

Wow. For 2 days of work, you prioritized your efforts very well, and  boiled down the gameplay to its fun core. At first I thought it was going to be boring, but the actual gameplay was really fun. The aggressive timer, 4-letter limit, first-letter restriction and inability to repeat words made the game a frantic burst of excitement. Dictionary seemed to have decent coverage; the words it didn't accept from me also weren't in the Scrabble dictionary so I can't really complain :). Good interpretation of the theme.  Audio-wise, it's a minor nitpick but the success tone seemed louder and  more annoying to my ear than I'd prefer - though a different tone or volume controls would probably take care of that. Nice work!

English is not my first language, so the game was really hard for me. Would be nice if there was an easy mode.

Submitted

Probably the game I had the most fun with so far. Great job!

Way to go for 2 days! That was supeur fun. Got an 'x' for my first letter, that run ended quickly lmao. 

I also didn't realize I could backspace, so I just sat there with a wrong word for a minute.

Submitted

Really nice game! Had a lot of fun and it looks polished. I think it might have been even more fun if you could have words longer than 4, but that way it's more challenging so both options are good.

Submitted

I liked the look of the game (great work for only 2 days!) but unclear what I had to do - some clues/letters would have been nice.

Submitted

nice game and nice color palett! i used the same

Submitted

Awesome game! Was confused on the title and theme, but I get it now. Really good job! I got a score of 35 :)

Submitted

This is a really, really good concept! I actually love this game so much and it's such an impressive feat for just two days!

Submitted

Great idea, unique take on the theme good job ! As a non-English native it's quite hard for me, but I still managed to make 16! ^^

Submitted

very nice. only issue I see is no way to correct your word if you make a mistake.

Submitted

Backspace worked for me

Submitted

Nice to learn english too ! good game

Submitted

that's such a bright take on the theme, and a really excellent execution of a simple idea! I loved the simplicity of it (others have mentioned the font could use a bit more differenciation between O and Q - otherwise it's flawless) and kept playing over and over! Getting to 20 was actually a lot harder than I thought! Awesome work!

Submitted

Excellent! Nice to see a word game. Simple idea, works well! 

Submitted

Dude this is a fantastic little word game, I got a score of 22, it's very simple and intuitive. My biggest note is that sometimes the font is a little hard to read, pretty much just between O and Q, but that's really minor. Great game

Submitted

Way to go!

Submitted

Haha love this idea! I could see myself playing this game a bunch in class honestly. I got 23!

Great fun, good job!
