Lots of changes in word2word under the hood, like multiplayer, not so many on screen but does include hints and better controls, plus OpenDyslexic font option.
Also finally have an itch.io page up with an early demo :)

Why spend $1,000,000 on a Game Awards Trailer when you can spend $10 on $20,000 of royalty free commercial use video game music.
All proceeds go directly to funding us making more games:

Oh, and if a AAA studio announces how amazing their games are since they laid off half their workforce to replace them with gen"ai", stop buying their fucking games
QA is a skill that needs people
Art & writing require human artists
Coding needs humans, not algorithms
Gamedev is a human art form

Just a quick shot of the hi-score table starting to come together. Lots to do yet as usual, but it's working across game type and difficulty, per dictionary and should be per player too soon.

Mainly code changes lately, but there is this gaudy end of level screen which doesn't really fit with the rest of the game aesthetic (but it's fun and I like it). Hi-score table is coming along too.

Working on an anagram game to learn Godot, with lots of game modes and options for accessibility.
Basic mechanics are in place, but need to juice it up more and tweak gameplay and scoring.
