A downloadable game

Submission for the 7DRL challenge for 2023.

A simple game for preschoolers where you find the letters in a maze to complete the word.  Best used with the Windows Magnifier to zoom in to at least 200%.  Also supports Adult Mode (off the difficulty levels in the main menu), which features a larger map with enemy letters trying to force themselves onto your word.  If they fill the word up, you lose.

Controls:

  • Arrow Keys/Numpad to move and navigate menus
  • Letter keys to select a specific menu entry (as marked)
  • Any other key to select the highlighted menu entry or close a message
  • Esc to exit

As a note, many of the display and difficulty settings (including map size and presence/number of enemies) are configurable in the included configuration file.  There is a separate file listing all the words available to find.
