Cross Words to deep dive into the poem.

I made all by myself (not the font of course, WHO MAKES A FONT FOR LUDUM !!)

Music made with Chrome Music Lab, Engine is Unity.
Poem from Robert Frost "The Road Not Taken".

I am a dad and have NOT MUCH TIME AT ALL so I did it quickly :]
(les than 10h but we don't really care do we?)

That was really original! This game has reminded me why I don't play Bananagrams.... it's a miracle I actually got past the second group of words with how dumb I am.

Also,

[raises hand awkwardly] Yeah, I have the bad idea to make a custom font every Ludum Dare as a sort of tradition, and also to have better graphics.... it's way too time-consuming and I honestly don't know why I bother.... 😅

Amazing game. Really innovative concept. The explanation in the beginning could be a bit clearer but otherwise really cool game.

I really liked the game though it was bit annoying that sometimes a word doesn't attach even if it would match

Really clever game! Took me a minute to figure out what to do but after that I enjoyed it! I liked that you could rearrange the pieces as well so you couldn't get stuck

Really great and simple puzzle that i could not solve... Think that says more about me than the game lol.

Great style and Audio feedback.

This felt like a relaxing single-player bananagrams to me. I was a bit thrown off and didn't know what to do in the beginning but ended up having some fun with it. Thanks! :)

Very cool! I can't get past the second line though, any pointers?

I struggled to figure it out how to play and it was not already in the comments... so here it is, hoping it'll help: you can superimpose one vertical word and one horizontal word that have a common letter at that letter place.

The idea is really creative, well done ! I did not finish it however, it got a bit repetitive for me. Do the words actually tell a story ?

About the music, I could only hear some sound effects. So my suggestion would be to add a nice background music !

Great concept and a very original interpretation of the theme.

One critique I have is that sometimes, the game reject a move that looks valid.
