I absolutely loved this game! It was such a calming puzzle game, and it kept me coming back for another round over and over. The little character fellow helped add some charm to the game and made it feel just that bit more personal, which was great. Some of the words did feel a bit strange - acronyms especially - which didn't help with the mechanic of avoiding placing words for greater reward, but it did help when the board was almost full and I discovered something new. The definitions at the bottom were a nice addition too, which did help with the problem of confusing words, so that was nice. The leaderboard was a great feature as well, and the game overall was really well made - brilliant work!

Thanks for playing and the feedback! ❤️
Haha yeah, the jam was around maybe like halfway for me and I was pretty much done feature wise and I already had that 'nice' sound when making words and somehow it reminded me of Mortal Kombat and that toasty thing. So the mascot was born! I'm not a native English speaker so the word definitions were a feature I really added because of my own annoyance while playing early on and thinking "what, that can't be a word".
