Hi! thanks for playing.
Right now you can only add a new word IF you have less than 5 words, you have completed all the previous words (this one goes automatically) or you have zero letters in the letter bank.

Huh, cause at the start of a new round after getting the upgrade card I'm pretty sure that meant I had only 1 word, had completed all previous words, and there were zero letters in the letter bank, but I couldn't add a new word to be able to start myself off being able to guess like 3. Not sure there's ever a time when you wouldn't want to go for at least like 3 words at once since there's a much higher chance of you not missing a letter.
yeah, so its a bug. sorry, couldn't look into it in time.
the thing about adding more words is that, even if you get the amount of points you need, if you can't get all of the words, you can't progress, so that was the "risk" idea behind it. maybe didn't came through very well.
again, sorry, kinda bugged and with not that much content, but thanks for playing anyway !!.
Oh I see, I'm not sure the risk of that in particular came through. I figured the risk of the game was just the same as normal hangman. It's so much more risky to go for one word at a time than 3+ at once since with less letters to guess its easier to make wrong guesses. If you wanted to guess say all the vowels first, and your words were steam and bounce, then guessing them together you'd only have one wrong guess (no i in either) while guessing them separately you'd have 4 wrong guesses (no i/o/u in steam, no i in bounce or steam). I hope you're able to fix the bugs and maybe be able to turn this into a real good game!
