Use of Open Source AI
I used embeddings from `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` and `GloVe` to generate the map

This game is so creative! Fits the theme perfectly and a great way to use AI!
This game is amazingly good! It does feel a bit random at times because of the algorithm, so a bit of patience and trial and error are needed to fully enjoy this game. Overall great concept and creative mechanic which goes to show how all you need is to correctly execute a great idea.
Great game ! It become really hard after 2890 ! I have reached 29905 but I couldn't go further !
Love the concept on this one! I got up to 28,295 and feel like there is an asymptotic relationship after that, might be something you structurally want to look at as you further develop this game, which I hope you do. This one has NY Times potential.
Creative idea!!
Very clever idea, I've always wanted to make a game using simple embeddings !
Nice one. I’ve toyed around with this kind of things before. Quite a few words landed at 0,0, which feels a bit frustrating (usually, cause it’s out of vocabulary or something). Still neat toy though
I'm on Mac and got an error, not sure if it is related. I'll try a PC later.
I played on PC, but the words just appear in a circle for me. I put in related words but they weren't next to each other. I couldn't quite figure out what was driving the placement.
Thanks for the feedback! I've heard a similar comment from friends. Initially, I considered a square-shaped map, but realized it limited replayability to just 4 words (the vertices). That's why I went with the circle. Adding a terrain background with island names is something I'm considering to improve clarity. Thanks for playing!
Brooooo this is one of the most unique and cool things in the jam! You get full points from me for theme use too.
