Interesting idea, simple but gets you focused on getting rid of more of those nasty letters… :) Good job!

Quite simplistic overall, but it did keep me busy for a few minutes :) Not bad!

Haha pretty fun game, nice job! I love the music.

very interesting concept, it took me a while notice that i shoot the letters down from the sides

I HAD ONE LETTER LEFT

That's a lot of fun. I would definitely enjoy playing an expanded game based on this idea. Really good.

Developer

Appreciate the feedback and thanks for playing it!

it's a simple idea but this could expand into a crossword game or even an RPG combat system. Who knows, anything is possible when creating games.

Good use of the gravity well theme. Surprisingly addictive!

Was kind of annoying when I missed the initial launch. I was also able to cheese it a little bit by jumping to the nearest letter as opposed to risking a shot to the other side of the circle.

I wasn't sure if it would be accepted as gravity well since there isn't any complicated movement or calculation involved but that was what it came to mind at the the time.

Oh yeah, jumping to the neighboring letter and specially when you are at the corner is the easiest way to do it I think.

Even with the “trick”, I still found the mechanic surprisingly fun. I could see this working well as a different way to play Word Cookie (not sure if you’ve played the mobile game).

Developer

Haven't seen it before, but I googled it just now. It is like a crossword right?

My original thought was to give the player a timer and if you hit the letters on the right order it would give you more time to complete the game or if you get a minus sign it would take a few seconds from the timer but I thought it could make the game to challenging to also add a timer.

Perhaps I could add different play modes in the future .

I’d definitely give Word Cookie a download and see if it sparks some inspiration.

Interesting concept that's surprisingly innovative. I was going to originally note that it lacked a scoreboard but after going back to check, I noticed that the text border was the scoreboard. Absolutely superb.

Is a fairly simple game, I guess that's what it makes it different from most submissions.

Yeah it is kinda of a progress tracking but I might add a best score as people has suggested, waiting on the other jams that I posted this game to come to an end so I can get all the feedback and perhaps make an small update.
