Fantastic entry!
The game would benefit from the left half that we can spawn our letters being visually different. And maybe the blurry letters at the background would disappear once the game begins, because they make it a bit hard to focus on the game itself.
Obviously quite simple and easy, but I don't think this is exactly intended to be complex. What it lacks in depth it makes up for with charm-- which is honestly all I need.
Felt like a 2010s flash game (in the best sense of the phrase.)
Deeply hilarious concept- good stuff.
jokes aside, I like the idea, reminds me of an old flashgame where you summon elephants
The balance was for sure in the players favor. Turns out that making sufficiently smart AI takes a lot more time than I had in the compo with everything else happening.
