Ludum Dare 40 - The More You Have, the Worse It Is


A puzzle game where you select letters to form words for points.  How many words can you make before time runs out?

Much like other games like Tetris or Snake that fit this theme, I decided to create a puzzle game.   The more consonants you have, the harder it is to make a match.

Controls:

  • Left click - select letters
  • Space bar - submit word

How to play:

  • Click on letters to form words for points.  
  • The next letter can be any unselected letter that is touching the last letter selected (in all 8 directions)
  • Red tiles increase your play time by 10 seconds.
  • Gold tiles double your word score.

Hint: Longer words score much higher than shorter words
