"The Word Battle" at development | play in gd.games | A game template

In this game, you play a speed word game against a bot. You must write words from the given 6 letters as quickly as possible. The longer the word, the stronger your attack.

Update:

  • Added Russian localization.
  • Added win/loss system.

To make more words out of letters WROADL letters, you can add other words before the word UNDEFINED using a comma without spaces, and I will add these words to the next version of the game:

wood,war,worlda,word,world,drawl,draw,road,lord,load,row,low,old,doll,woodward,dollar,radar,arrow,UNDEFINED

worlda isnt a word! not in the dictionary

I added it because there is such a game.

true but names doesn’t count. Like ā€˜kotiks’ can’t be a word to be solved, or ā€˜Tom’

I removed this word in the new version.

I will soon fix my randomly scattered events and expansions, as well as the randomly named objects, and this game will be a free game template.

Have you manually created a word database? …I think you should definitely look into how to use an existing database of words …the others who have created a word game templates …im assuming that they used an online database or extension or list…
edit …i just looked at the AI overview on this
apparently there isn’t an extension
you need to load a json resource with a list of words
then use text manipulation expressions to search that list of words for the words that include the letters that you’re using.
I found a text file full of english words …but i’ve not opened it!

i think you should maybe have a look at how Bouh did it in their word game template
my string manipulation experience is limited and i would definitely look at how someone else had done it first!

My game… Can’t handle so many words. While the bot is trying to come up with a word, Windows will first write a word


Because he tries all the letters in each word to make sure that the word has exactly 6 letters(WARDOL).

The template is now available as well:

The template will now be discussed in a different topic:
