Working on the dictionary part is a little tough. I have to get things together in Construct 2 to make it search for a word, then compare that word to make sure it works. It's a little bit tough as either I have to add ALL the words to the dictionary file, or find something else to work.

Made the title screens better:

Today should be the first workings of the dictionary. I'm so excited to get it up and running - making it work and score words will be top priority.

Working on the title screen...

Another GIF, this time showing off moving the big block darkening to individual blocks - makes it look more appealing when damage will be dealt, etc.

Well the game utilizes the attack button to check the dictionary (when added) and also to set off the event chain that stops the word entry. Also, if it was automatic, it would eat all small words before you made a big one for huge damage!

Actually they will be hidden under a sweeping "flipping" effect, as if the letters are being torn off to replace new ones.

Here's another GIF, I've been messing with the temp graphics while working on finding an artist (which may have just happened!)
