wordle-inspired game about harvesting key words in encrypted enemy files through guesswork and clues in the story

Features:

  • A small story, and cheats if you’re only here for that
  • Gameplay, and a collection of ~30 story-related words to guess
  • Slightly adjustable difficulty
  • timed highscore-based mode at the end where you have to go through a randomized set of ~30 words as fast as possible. Cheats disabled.
  • Progress-saving. Take a break halfway through, accidentally close the tab, no problem. (Unless your browser eats the cookies)
  • Post-jam version toggleable in the main menu, where you can also find a list of changes made

Bugs:

  • The text ‘typing effect’ doesn’t match the sound, and sometimes delays in the wrong place
    • You can usually fix this when in the terminal by running clear
  • Not aware of any others yet.
    • Feel free to post below if you find a bug or want to be notified when I fix one


    Base Code I Started With:

    • A jsonfile-based Settings object for storing things across game sessions
    • The keybinds menu, and a system for easily adding keybinds
    • The volume slider, which I have to manually tie to the volume of each sound
