@GrayAriia I'll put in some effort for a while and we'll see...

Added a survey to see what potential features sound fun to people.

@TwoferGoofer I didn't realize there was a timed component for a while. In the meantime I must have left the screen up for an hour a couple times. Now my average time is 300 sec. 🤦

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@TwoferGoofer Cool to show the iterations.

@carly_carlee There should be a Wordle court of appeals. :(

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@kyo3eb Sorry, man, stay strong.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@Clive_Kar Fingers crossed.

@TraverHart I've often wondered if it's a general rule that, given the option of multiple letters, more commonly said words win more often. Like is SOUND said more often than MOUND? If so, is that a good general strategy? But yeah, about missing that S clue, sorry man, get some sleep. 😀

@C02K6 Over one year. Good run.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@GrayAriia Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@GrayAriia Done. Thanks for the tip.

@GrayAriia @absentm1nd It's Google's Cherry Swash font.

Changes are coming to WordHuddle, and they are coming soon! Within the next few days the scoring of the game will change. Instead of a numeric score and a "par" number, you will get a number of stars (out of 10) depending on how many guesses you take to complete the puzzle.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@ResistiCat @PlaneJumper124 Just-for-fun guessing is now enabled. Guess more even when out of guesses.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@ResistiCat @PlaneJumper124 Thanks for the feedback. So, the way the old version worked is that you had a "par" score to shoot for. If you took a lot of guesses before solving, you could not get the par score. And "a lot of guesses" usually was less than 10.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@absentm1nd @GrayAriia You can access Classic WordHuddle via the pink violin.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@PlaneJumper124 The classic version is back, as an option.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@ResistiCat @PlaneJumper124 To me, the possibility of actually running out of guesses and "losing" makes things more dramatic and interesting. And it's what games like Wordle (6 guesses total) and Waffle (15 swaps max) do. Does it seem unfair that those games have guess/swap limits?

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@ResistiCat @PlaneJumper124 But it *did* let you keep guessing until the puzzle was complete. The new version is actually pretty much the same game, but it's true that you only get 10 guesses before it reveals the answer.

[WordHuddle @WordHuddle]

@absentm1nd @GrayAriia Thanks for the feedback. We'll see how things shake out.
