A word game where the player earns points by making words out of a given set of letters. Jumbalaya is similar to other anagram games, such as Text Twist. A great game for word lovers!
This is a VERY cool widget! Jumbalaya has provided me with hours of entertainment! But when I was playing Battlefield 2142, it changed my screen resolution and now the widget is off the side of my screen! And I have tried everything I could think of to get it back to where it was before and I was wondering if you could make an option to "Reset" the widget back to its original place. If you could that would be great! Thanks!
Thank you! Its pretty and good! I am having a lot of fun with this!
So far I cannot see a clear difference between the levels, but the dictionary should be the same for all levels. The game cannot say to a player on an easier level: "Forget that word, you may not know it on your level" :D
Differences between levels that I'd expect as a player are a tougher time limit and that I have to get more words (but have all possibilities) on a more difficult level.
But you did a very good …job on this widget and the dictionary is not SMALL, so please nobody stay away from it because of our comments!More
Snuffy: I purposefully limited the vocabulary of the easier levels to include only more "common" words, and thus prevent players from getting stumped too easily on the 6/7-letter words. However, after I made that decision regarding difficulty levels, I changed the "advancement" requirements to be more flexible, allowing for advancement if a certain number of points or a percentage of words is guessed.
Perhaps a better way of differentiating the difficulty levels would be to only use one (complete) word list, and adjust the time/advancement requirements. Any thoughts?
