Going to try and answer a few questions/comments here
<3 it
@Rumpelnoskin should we expect videos from all eras? how far have you gone?
thanks for your work!
Thanks for playing! Yep you should expect all sorts of videos. The only kind of video I likely won't include are solo parts. Right now I have a queue of about 2 weeks worth but I'm adding more every day.
If suggestions are open to make it more difficult, it could be cool if the first or second clip was only part of the actual clip. Like even just a push from a line or a b-roll clip. Then as the guesses progress it gets more obvious.
Yep I'm still figuring out the formula. It's hard to balance the difficulty, but yes I have tried to make sure at least the first clip is somewhat hard to guess.
I’m mixed on the 10 pm pst start time. Might be confusing for folks that do it in the morning but kinda nice to have a new puzzle at night.
The reason for the specific start time is that time zones are notoriously finicky and error prone in software development. So I stuck with a single time zone (US central time) in order to make sure I don't have some weird bugs show up.
*Edit - I don't know much about wordle and stuff, when I try to share the little block graph all the blocks are red.
Whatupwitdat?
Each "share" graph is the guesses for the current video you played, so all 6 red means you got all of the guesses wrong :p
Green means correct guess, black means there wasn't a guess (only shows if you win the game).
Another thing I wanted to bring up is how the game persists your data. To keep things simple I have it only persisting in the browser storage, so if you play on another browser or clear your browser data/cache then you will lose your game data.
After seeing all of the positive reception, I think I am going to add an login/auth feature so you can register and save your data no matter what. It might take me a little while to implement but I would be bummed if y'all lost your streaks now.
So be sure to stick to one browser for now, and let me know if there is anything else!
Cheers
