Ever since I became aware of Wordle (and its success) I’ve wanted to make my own daily word game. This is unashamedly inspired by Wordle, but unlike most Wordle derivatives it’s fundamentally a different game with a different game mechanism. It deliberately looks a bit like Wordle, as it is mainly aimed at people who currently play Wordle (I understand there’s a lot of them), but might want a bit more of a challenge. If you try it I hope you like it.
You’re right. I wasn’t aware of word-in-one and it’s a similar idea. The closest I’ve seen to my game in fact. ( when I had the idea for it I wondered if anyone else had had the same idea. I’ve not seen another game doing exactly the same yet)
Thanks - it is behind cloudflare, and there does seem to be the odd caching issue where there is a mismatch between the files. I'll look further into it.
Looking forward to seeing this progress, we think you're onto something!
We've noticed that sharing results (like in Wordle or Quordle) is a bit weird. On mobile you need to refresh the page for it to show the share button after completion, but the payload only presents the last line (with how many right/wrong). However on the web, it doesn't show at all, just a "You've Won!" modal.
I’ve made it so it only shows the share button if the browser supports native sharing (navigator.share) - wordle just copies it to the clipboard on other browsers, which I found a little naff so that I didn’t really bother to do that.
Only showing the right/wrong is how it’s supposed to work. I thought about it sharing the grid like wordle, but I thought that was too much of a copy, and unlike wordle I think the wordall grid doesn’t contain as much meaning (it contains some, but I am not sure what it conveys is that interesting)
Really appreciate your interest - I’m glad you like it!
