Nice game! Might be fun to add a mode where 2-letter words aren't allowed. Would be more challenging as you can't just trial and error. But I can just play the game keeping myself to that rule :P

But I'm no expert in french. Is there a better approach?3 years ago(+1)
Wow! As a fan of word games this is extremely clever -- having the goose move the tiles around creates some unique challenges, especially as the board fills up. I enjoyed the music as well as the art style (very baba-is-you-esque as others have noted; we tried to achieve something similar in our game), which helped keep it engaging. That you executed such a complete game in 48 hours makes it all the more impressive. Congrats on this accomplishment!

Thanks! Went back to it later and managed to get 98 (forgot to screenshot the board before the timer ran out... in a future version maybe give the player a chance to see their board postgame?) Once again awesome job -- I was clearly drawn back to it after some time which is probably a good sign lol
