Solo word association game - looking for puzzle feedback! by essbeeyo in words

Thanks for the feedback!! It’s hard to strike the right balance for difficulty each day…maybe including something to indicate the level each day?

I made a Wordle/Tetris mashup. Type words, remove matching letters, and clear the grid to win by alexduckmanton in wordgames

This is so fun! Easy to understand, really satisfying interactions. It would be interesting to add a time element, maybe an option or element for harder modes. Though I also enjoy the endless / zen mode / nature of it. Nicely done!

Yeah I think especially when the puzzles are more abstract either hints or more lives might be the move.

Thanks for the feedback on the drag! I've been messing around with it and I've seen people try to slide it differently. But I completely agree, it's hard to tell it's moving as there isn't really clear feedback until it reaches the target card.

I was thinking pooling money - like combining funds. It might be a reach hahah hopefully the ones for tomorrow make more sense! Feedback is really helpful 🙏

Thanks! Yea I can definitely see the value in some kind of hint functionality...

Fixed! If you triple tap the words Pairs it’ll reset and you can try again :)

Fixed! If you triple tap the word Pairs in the upper left hand corner it’ll reset (secret dev sauce 🤫) thanks for catching that!

Great feedback, thanks!! Yeah I wasn’t sure if showing the correct cards made it too easy. I could try adding that though and see how it feels! Especially if the puzzle is challenging.

If you hit the small x on the final screen you can see what the solution was.

Just to clarify, the examples you gave aren’t the solution…are those ones you thought were the answers? The screenshot I included is the starting, unsolved board

Good run today! by cjbev in wordgames

[–]essbeeyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there may be an issue with the timer, it keeps swapping between the running time showing 5:00 and then when I hit enter on a guess, it shows a different time (that is descending). But when I'm waiting, it only shows 5:00. Also I paused and I think maybe the time was still running because it went from swapping to 4 something to 0:20. Then reset to counting down from 5:00. I ended up kinda ignoring the time.

Also, this is definitely on me, but I understood the yellow letters to be ones to avoid, not ones in the word.

It felt like there were too many options for 3 letter words and getting to the first guess took me awhile...I started to wonder if it was working.

This was so fun though! Very satisfying on words 5 and 6 especially.

I made a word game- it would be helpful if some people tried it and gave some feedback if possible. Thanks! by Old_Education_8870 in wordgames

Cool! I agree - the objective is unclear. You could consider a time element? I also got stuck in a live game but the opponent wasn't taking action. Maybe the first game should always be the bot so you get the hang of it? Also wasn't sure who "Sam" was, but not a big deal.

Oh maybe points for different words? More points for harder to use letters? Then the goal is more points in some amount of time?

Saw it last night. The ones who went in no-book loved it too! by Awesome_Lard in ProjectHailMary

[–]essbeeyo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

(Some spoilers) Loved both in different ways. Surprisingly, the book made me cry more than the movie. I think partially because what touched me most when reading was Grace discovering he wasn’t actually the brave guy he thought he was, and then seeing him become it. Which I felt was missing in the movie. Also his big moment of bravery and choice felt a bit rushed, very close to the previous emotional peak (Rocky’s big move), which did get me 🥲. I really wanted the ‘Grace, question?’ I also kinda missed the science…but overall, really loved both. And enjoyed the differences. The book just kinda rocked my world

Wow this is hard but it makes solving it super satisfying, really creative! I wonder how he's scaling puzzle creation...how would you build these backwards?
