changedA new leaderboard system has been implemented, you should not notice any changes on your end other than it should work now! Unfortunately, the leaderboard system I was using previously started to have a lot of down time and would cause issues such as player scores showing up multiple times and different users on one device having scores override. The new system should not have any of these issues and also allows me some more data on the backend to ensure scores are legit.
addedI have uploaded all of the scores from the previous system to the new system so your placements should all be as they were. If you happened to get a new high-score during the downtime, just send me a screenshot of your game and we can get your score on there.
addedThe only downside of the new system is that it currently only allows for 25 entries, for now that is not an issue, but some of you will get booted off the leaderboard pretty soon. Looking to see if I can get this cap raised a bit.

Below is the update overview:

  • Implemented new leaderboard system

  • Updated credits screen

  • Updated standard word list to remove some profanity

  • Updated profanity word list to remove some duplicates

As you can tell from 6 updates in just as many days this has been a work in progress and a learning experience. Thank you for sticking with me through this and continuing to give me feedback it is all very helpful. If there is anything you'd like to see in the game please let me know as I am happy to continue to update the game and add content over time. I'm thinking of maybe adding a wild card tile that can act as any letter (if I can get this to work without absolutely breaking everything).

Now that the leaderboard is fixed I need to focus on getting that top spot back!
