I will not come every day to play your "daily" game. I may look at it once and never come back, because I refuse to be held hostage by your artificial restriction (not to say preemptive enshittification) of getting one play per day.
You mean that one game that actually managed to pull off the game-a-day scheme four years ago through clever design and simple gameplay? The game with the inherently player-hostile scheme that's still inspiring thousands of talentless hacks on the internet? The actual successful game that attracted millions of copycat losers? Nope, never heard of it.
Just wait until I tell you about your local newspaper’s Sunday crossword.
I built this game for fun. There are no ads, and I currently cover the LLM costs myself.
I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile toward the idea of a daily puzzle game. Wouldn’t it make more sense, ideologically, to direct your criticism at pay-to-win games designed to keep you playing for hours a day? This is a simple daily puzzle — a two-minute break that never asks for more of your time. How is that even remotely comparable?
You showed your game and asked for feedback. I gave you honest feedback: I won't play your "daily" game, because I think the "daily" aspect is an unnecessarily enforced, inherently player-hostile, mindlessly imitated anti-feature that's of no use to anyone.
Congratulations on making the game, I know it's hard to finish and release something. I wish you luck.
