I like how this feels harder than Wordle.

Cool concept and really fun to play, the timing feels just right too. However, I feel like all the letters should already start at grey to avoid confusion and so the player needs less clicks to get the right answer. Maybe you can reduce the timer a little to compensate for this as well? Still really liked the game overall though :)

Penguin PaparazziYesss. Making the initial state of the letters empty made the players have unnecessary clicks so I actually felt dumb that I didn't think of it during development. And for the timer, it's kinda adaptive to the player's skill level so it will increase as you score more. Thanks for the detailed feedback tho. I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
This is such a simple and delightful concept, even without the clear inversion of Wordle, the only thing I'd suggest is that it'd be nice for QOL if the letters all started as grey.

A Wyrm's WeddingNeat idea! I think reversing the order of colours would help, though, so you'll have to click fewer times to get the grey, which is the most commonly-used colour.

A Day in the Day/Night CycleInteresting take on the theme, found it very fun to play! Felt that it was very polished, however the timer starts going up past 100% if you get into the negatives. (definitely not a skill issue on my part...)

Squared AwayNice work! Although in Wordle, if you guess multiple of the same letter and there's only one present in the answer, only one of them gets marked as green or yellow.

HimegotchiI wish the default state of the letter was wrong so I didn't have to click unused letters. Otherwise had fun with this good job
