Game Description
Section titled “Game Description”Make words in a grid and maximise your score with a different set of letters each day! Reach the day’s goals, or take on the challenge of topping the leaderboards. Easy to play, hard to master!
My contributions
Section titled “My contributions”This is my first fully released solo game! I built it using GDScript with Godot 4.7. The only part I didn’t do was come up with the original game design - that was my mum’s idea! You can read more about how this game came to be here.
I also wrote a predictive model using machine learning in Python to generate realistic goals for each day’s letter set. That was a really interesting project that you can read about here.
Future
Section titled “Future”I’m not yet done with this project, and I want to do a lot of post-release updates to flesh out some of the gameplay and make it more user friendly. Watch this space for features like:
- cross-device player accounts
- achievements
- rotate grid and shuffle dock buttons
- screen reader support
- free letter choice mode and corresponding all-time leaderboard
- leaderboard history
