Nice game, great combination of genres. Found it very difficult to move relative to the mouse, was expecting relative to the grid. Good job

Pretty cool idea. It was a good idea to include a small tutorial at the start. The controls are a bit hard to get used to. I expected the rotation not to affect the movement.

Very cool take on the theme! Found it hard even in easy mode though! Keypad on mac didn't help either (maybe if WASD was allowed that'd be a bit better :P). Need some skill to dodge, shoot and write!

Very nice combination. The sound is pretty good, though a little loud. I like how you've linked Space Invaders (space shooter) to Scrabble. However it feels like you should be able to pickup letters while they're still blue - I accidentally placed an 'L' in the wrong place and couldn't pick it up :(. Overall very good job:)

nice combination! Kind of hard, but fun. I got about 4 words :-)

Really nice, chaotic, challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 41 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VBigr-DBUjI

10 words, 70 kills. That was more exhausting than I thought it would be. It's really hard to try to find words while at the same time having to stay alive. Nice combination of genres and really fun (I prefer the controls of the post compo version).

I really like this take on the theme, totally different mix of genres and brilliant fun. UI needs a bit of work. Thanks for this great entry :smiley:

Good job! Cool game!

I rate your game, if I can give a game in my game, Witch's Escape.

very cool genre mashups to go with the theme! Was tough on a laptop, but I did ok heh

Haha this game is just impossible x) but I had so much fun playing it ! Well done mate :)

Well, this...um...well I don't speak French so...it seems like it could have been fun but obviously I couldn't do the scrabble part.

That's a lot of work done for a compo game. Nice idea but very difficult to play :) Really solid effort.

goffmog 2018-05-11 17:01

Felt like there could have been some bugs with the movement controls but besides that, this was a very solid and well put together game, well done! The only suggestion I would make is to figure out a way that the controls could be a little bit more intuitive.

matsoj15 2018-05-11 17:02

I've had a lot fun during playing this

rockhoppergames 2018-05-11 17:25

A very fun game! I experienced some problems with slowdown, and glitches resulting from that, but if you could clear that up you'd have something very promising here!
