Show HN: Yet another daily word game – wotd
wotd.isHowdy HN. I wanted an excuse to do some lightweight JS/TS development and to get reacquainted with the Cloudflare stack, so I put together a daily word game. It's partially inspired by NYT's Spelling Bee and Wordle. The main goal is to find a specific word each day that uses each provided letter at least once. There's a secondary goal of finding as many words as possible. Right now progress is all stored on-device, but in the future I might add leaderboards or other competitive elements. Hope y'all enjoy! "SO" is not a valid word, but I don't see anything in the instructions saying words must be at least three letters. Edit: Perhaps you could add a toggle for the list of words, to switch between the order they were found in, and alphabetical order? This would be particularly useful when there's an S in play, to find words that could be made plural. Great callout. I forgot to update the help modal when I put in that 3 letter minimum. Sorting is a great idea, too. Thanks for the feedback! Edit: Both things added in. I appreciate ya! Excellent! I enjoyed it and I have one suggestion: a shuffle button. Great suggestion. I'll try and get that added in today. I was debating adding in score checkpoints that unlock other permutations, but I might just add in a shuffle and make sure it doesn't reveal the wotd. Thanks for the feedback! really gets you thinking on a few of them, it's fun Hey thanks! Glad you like it.
