Fast Flood

This is fun and seems to replicate more closely the things I enjoyed about Wordle than other attempts. Well done! Fast Flood No.3 → ⌛ → 29 seconds ▶ → 15 moves → 1 try

This is incredibly addicting

Fast Flood No.3 → ⌛ → 20 seconds ▶ → 18 moves → 2 tries Super fun!!!!

I was not expecting much, but that’s pretty good! It’s Tetris-simple, but still challenging give the time limit. Great job!

Took a minute to figure out, but thought it was fun. Thanks for sharing!

Fast Flood No.4 → ⌛ → 31 seconds ▶ → 18 moves → 1 try Quite fun! Nicely made. My (hopefully constructive) feedback: - Bug: I refreshed the page on my first try and it told me to…

I like knowing the time but I don't like being cut off by it. Just let it count up. Same with the moves. You can say what "par" is to make a goal to achieve, but let people take…

too stressful Fast Flood No.3 → ⌛ → 59 seconds ▶ → 18 moves → 1 try

Fast Flood No.3 → ⌛ → 57 seconds ▶ → 17 moves → 1 try Nice concept! - I had to considerately speed up my game after realising I was running out of time - The frenetic pace is not…

Why do I have to "come back tomorrow" to play a game more than once? What a weird anti-user feature. Have to delete cookies to play a game! What next, be allowed to play one game…

I get that you're following the "once a day" wordle model, but you're going to lose a lot of people who go in blindly (like me), don't understand the game, and then discover…

I didn't complete the first game and reloaded the page and now I can't play until tomorrow. In this case I think the imposed limit is kinda "artificial" and would work better…

I went back to the instruction page realizing I really needed to understand it before playing. Now it shows comeback tomorrow.

It looks like it uses "modern" emojis that aren't available on our OS.

They don't render in macOS 10.13 (the latest version I can install on my girlfriend's 2009 iMac) either. I've found that any time I'm using emojis for something substantial, I…

I'm using a recent Firefox on a stock Android on a Samsung 8. The game only shows brownish rectangles. I know the phone is considered antique by today's standards, but still...

Doesn't work at all in Brave, all I see are rectangles.

I skimmed the tutorial and just clicked around my first round, not rly sure what was going on until around the end of the round. Second round I understood the mechanics but ran…

Took my a run to understand how to play. Thought I had to click on the titles to pick what colors I wanted. Got it the second go though!

Very fun. I like the timer and move limit to add a bit more pressure, but agree with other commenters that it may not always be desirable. My suggestion is to have different…

I'm not exactly sure how it would change the gameplay, but I wonder what it would be like if the starting point wasn't always in a corner? Also - not a fan of the timer.

I like the move limit- it's part of what gives Wordle and its associated games (have you tried Sedordle?) their charm. One thing I'd definitely like to see would be the ability…

This is fun, thanks! It seems like once I solve a puzzle if I don't copy my results I have no way of seeing them. I'm at a screen that says to come back tomorrow.

I tried it three times and failed, got frustrated, then opened it in a private window and turned on color blind mode and got it on the first try! I think color blind mode is way…

I'd love a mode that adds some letters on the tiles, as I'm colorblind and have difficulty differentiating colors.

Cool game mechanic, I haven't seen anything quite like it. I think you could remove the UI options at the bottom entirely. Instead have the user click on the adjacent squares…

Can the board be made larger? I found the game was over too quickly and there was little scope for strategic thinking by looking ahead for channels with lots of branches.

Fun game! I'd suggest adding a link to the shareable clipboard score.

Sorry to add a third comment, but I'd love the 'share' button to include the game's url

I enjoyed this game! My strategy was simple: Scan the boundaries of the area of cells stemming from the top-left corner cell which are of the same color, and attempt to determine…

Seems like a fun game but I don't think it'll hit the worldle success because the dividide the middle and aim straigh for the diagonal strategy gets you a win pretty much every…

Now what is the best way today to publish such JavaScript app in Google or Apple app stores?

It's trying to copy the artificial scarcity of Wordle, which limits the amount of times you can play to encourage sharing the link.

Assimilate (Flood-It for Mac OS 9) was posted on HN recently; did that inspire you? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30176448

Not really. I missed that post. I was looking for logic games and found Flood in Simon Tatham's puzzles collection: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/
