Just wait until I tell you about your local newspaper’s Sunday crossword.

I built this game for fun. There are no ads, and I currently cover the LLM costs myself.

I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile toward the idea of a daily puzzle game. Wouldn’t it make more sense, ideologically, to direct your criticism at pay-to-win games designed to keep you playing for hours a day? This is a simple daily puzzle — a two-minute break that never asks for more of your time. How is that even remotely comparable?

You showed your game and asked for feedback. I gave you honest feedback: I won't play your "daily" game, because I think the "daily" aspect is an unnecessarily enforced, inherently player-hostile, mindlessly imitated anti-feature that's of no use to anyone.

Congratulations on making the game, I know it's hard to finish and release something. I wish you luck.
