Maybe similar to limit or the number of times you can change a letter maybe you could have up to 3 'unlinks' per playthrough. But its really hard to balance a game in such a short amount of time in a game jam.
Exactly. I thought of limited “unlinks power”, maybe you could get it by completing long words.
I should also give more points for long letters, otherwise you end up doing 2-letter words haha! (if, at, us, me,…)
