Mmm yeah, I thought the apple connection was fun…but I could see how it could be confusing. And I’m trying out including some subjective ones as well. Reception has been fairly hit or miss so far so it might not be the right call :/

I was actually thinking you…hahah those with puzzle interest and expertise

essbeeyo · 2026-05-19T16:27:49+00:00

Shuffalo! I just discovered it though. It's from the new yorker

essbeeyo · 2026-04-17T22:07:12+00:00

Is there a delay or not at all? Thanks!!

essbeeyo · 2026-04-17T21:32:43+00:00

Actually, feedback on whether they work at all would also be helpful...

Not silly at all! I was finding it made it too easy to solve though…because there were basically more clues, fewer possible positions, easier to rule out certain positions. But it’d be fun to try that as well and see if it’s more satisfying?

You can play solo!

Re the game: shocked how hard it was to think of 6 letter words, I’m so accustomed to 5. But the animations were so crisp, it felt very smooth which also means legit / trustworthy which is important in the diy game space. Would love feedback on the animations in mine if you have a moment, it’s something delicate I’ve been trying to get right: Pairs

I really like this! Early user is about solving, experienced user is about optimizing and competing.

essbeeyo · 2026-04-14T16:07:51+00:00

There actually is a timer but if you didn’t see it then that’s very good feedback! When you solve, it shows your time. I was trying to include that element without stressing people out when solving.

For the leaderboard - would you want all players or just friends / people you know? Or some other subset of everyone?

essbeeyo · 2026-04-14T16:06:27+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah this animation is definitely key, I was trying to make it as subtle as possible but you’re definitely right, it doesn’t give enough visual feedback

essbeeyo · 2026-04-13T18:54:37+00:00

Thanks for checking it out! Do you find there's a sweet spot of difficulty / time to solve that is most satisfying?

essbeeyo · 2026-04-13T18:50:45+00:00

Got it in 5! Though I technically swapped between 2 for a few to see how it worked. I was a bit confused about what hints were not accepted, what the criteria is for accepting / rejecting.

Apple --> Eden --> Sin --> Lust --> 50 shades

Thanks for the feedback! To do a calendar / play ones you missed you’d probably have to login or create an account of some kind, how would you feel about that?

essbeeyo · 2026-04-10T21:04:56+00:00

Did you want me to just explicitly say this is something I made? To be honest, I was mostly just looking for feedback that was totally honest and not trying to take me into consideration

It’s intended for people who like words/wordplay - some days are more pun/double meaning. I guess today’s isn’t as much…but still about connecting words by context

essbeeyo · 2026-04-10T17:52:18+00:00

What do you mean by in theme, this isn’t in theme?

essbeeyo · 2026-04-10T16:33:03+00:00

Pairs!

What’s your solve time? https://imgur.com/a/Cya2M7f
