#2I survived all 23 words, "Top 1% of players today".
Don't chase the letters with the mouse, you can type on your keyboard and hit backspace to shave off some seconds.

#3Fun! And fast!
I didn't realize it reset for every word, so I was worried I was done on 8 words, but by getting that one at the wire, I was able to limp to 17.
At least for today's words, it was a reasonable difficulty ramp, and a pretty easy experience! If I had one note it's that clicking the text of a letter doesn't remove that letter from the word (while clicking the background of a letter DOES remove it).
Anyway, thanks for making/publishing this!

#4That was super fun, works great with keyboard. Fingers crossed for a seven-figure NYT acquisition :)

#5Excellent! Got stumped on 10 but brain wasn’t in gear. Tomorrow will be better!

#6Is there a key to clear a word automatically? Seems the space bar would work well.

#7This makes me miss the original Text Twist, I would love if someone knows how I can play it still.
In the original Text Twist, the shorter words were all in a specified order relative to the word order in the final word. For example, if the word was BIOPIC then TOP comes before TOPIC comes before TIC comes before OPT comes before POT. BIT would be the first word, and COT would be the last.
(technically it was exactly opposite that, they were sorted in reverse of the order in which they appear in the final word, but that's harder to explain)
With Text Twist 2 I guess they decided that was a bug not a feature (it was definitely a feature not a bug) and the order of the smaller words is now randomized. That one small change took the game from something I'd spend hours on to not even a little bit fun.
Anyway to me this was pretty easy, I got all 23. I thought the letter order was very revealing on some of the later clues (like KINGDOM was almost entirely in order already) but maybe that was deliberate, anagramming a 7-letter word in 30s can be a bit hard
One big piece of feedback, though: pressing enter should always clear your current letters (as in text twist)

#8I like quick low-stakes browser games like this, something fun and fast to wake up your brain with morning coffee. If interested, here are some others I've come across -
Linxicon - build bridges between two words (https://linxicon.com)
WhenTaken - use clues to guess where and when a photo was taken (https://whentaken.com)
Angle - guess the exact arc angle (https://angle.wtf)
Metazooa - deduce the animal species (https://metazooa.com)
Tradle - guess the country by its exports (https://games.oec.world/en/tradle)
Globle - find the country by proximity (https://globle-game.com)

#10I got all the words. Fun game, but it felt kind of easy.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to shuffle? I tried space to no avail.
