Use of the limitation
I took the style of word game whose staple is being turn-based and made it so either player can play at any time and even move and steal each other's pieces to mess with each other or progress. :D

Fantastic idea, basically a real-time scrabble free-for-all.

Thanks! Had fun putting it together.

Great idea and cool implementation of the limitation, but the controls are a bit too fast.

Developer

Yeah, the controls definitely need tuning, maybe I’ll tweak the speed and add some smoothing to the cursor movement if it’s allowed to patch post-jam deadline...

I’m also considering releasing a downloadable version with controller support. 😊

Anyways, thanks for playing and for the feedback!
