The gameplay is great! I was hoping the crank did exactly what it turned out to do, which was a fun surprise: it randomizes the letters in your hand to help you see words you might not otherwise.
I see in the system menu that there's an option to abandon the run—does this mean that if I go Home it saves the run?
Update: While I haven't noticed any bugs, the game does seem to pause a bit when submitting longer words.
Thank you for playing, and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! The run does save to an extent when closing the game, although the exact state of the battle you're in is not saved so it's best to stop playing a run right at the start of a battle.
In terms of the freezing, the list of words is pretty extensive, especially for longer words, and it does take some time to search through them all. I've done what I can to lower the time this takes but due to the limits of the device the search does still take time. Luckily it's never more than a few seconds (you should have seen how bad it was when I first started working on the project!) so hopefully it's bearable.
I appreciate your feedback and hope you continue to enjoy your time with Rendsword!
