This is my first game, Wordstorm! It's based on the old Text Twist flash game-- the goal is to use a scrambled set of letters to find valid words. Each round, you need to make three 3-letter words, two 4-letter words, and one 5-letter word to increase your score and get a new set of letters. Use the arrow button to submit a word once you've spelled it out. Timed mode adds a one minute timer per round and lets you accumulate a persistent high score. Untimed mode lets you spend as much time as you'd like per round, but you can't get a high score.
Huge thankyou to zep's is_word_40k dictionary that allowed me to greatly increase the number of words used. The font is copied from Early Gameboy by Jimmy Campbell on Dafont.
Have fun, and let me know what you think!!
Wondering why "NAY" and "YAM" are not counted as the legal words in this game:
Other than that, cool gameplay indeed!
I'm not sure either lol-- the dictionary I'm using for testing words should work for those, so I'm going to play around with it a bit and see what might be going on.
