My first JavaScript game that I put together with Cursor with only updating a few lines of code manually. Funny how AI brings out product thinking and I can confirm the dopamine dose comes from making and shipping, not from writing code.

What was the motivation for this?

The typo is rather brutal, at least since i usually make several typos at once :D

I got "awkward" as my second word! I quit!

It should start with easy words and increase the difficulty later. A big part of the success of Wordle was a very curated list of words to guess.

(Does it show difficult words after I make a mistake?)

If I'm typing a word and I miss a key and then press two before I realize the mistake, then it counts as two negative points. Perhaps the program can stop giving negative points until the user press a correct letter.
