This was really fun. I played for much longer than expected.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Were you able to play with some other people or were you playing alone with the bots? The most I've been able to play with was about 6 or so people and thought it was way more fun than I had while playtesting by myself.

This was really good I enjoyed playing. I do think it's a bit much to have your score set to 0 if someone guesses your word, I've still guessed that amount of words right, they have just also guessed one. Maybe knock a point off at the most I would say but this was good fun 

Developer

Thanks for the great feedback! I agree, resetting to 0 is pretty harsh and it kind of makes me want to quit whenever someone snipes me when I have a high score. My concern with just reducing score is that people who are in the game for a long time will pretty much always have a higher score than someone just joining which can be frustrating if you want to catch up. Maybe the score should be reset to 0, but I also keep a record of what your highest score before being guessed is as well. Not sure. Thanks for playing!

Something like you lose 1 point and they gain one would mean that if lots of people guessed you then your score would go down even if you didn't guess others. I dunno, but definitely it going to nothing feels bad. Best of luck taking it further

I played with a friend and the concept is really fun, reminds me of scrabble. First time I see an online multiplayer game in a jam, well done !

Whoa that's very impressive. It's almost like the Battleship game but with words haha

I like it! 

Developer

Battleship is a great comparison! Hadn't thought of that myself, but now that you say it, yeah it's pretty similar. Thanks for playing!

I tried to figure it out but I had no idea what tf was going on. That being said, online multiplayer for a game jam game? fricken awesome good job!

Developer

Hey, thanks for trying the game! The description on the itch page has some directions on how to play.

Basically everyone who joins is given a secret word and the point of the game is to try and guess other player's words. All players simultaneously move every 10 seconds and you can hide your word by standing on tiles that don't have letters that are in your word.
