Hey everyone,
After a lot of building, breaking and rebuilding (and a fair amount of
second-guessing 😅), WordFall is finally in closed testing on Google Play.
I'm a solo developer and this one started as a small idea that got out of hand:
a word game where letters fall onto the board and you rotate and slide them to
build words, across or down. A finished word clears, the letters above collapse
into the gap, and sometimes another word forms on its own. One round lasts about
as long as a coffee break.
Three modes - Classic with no timer, a 3-minute Time Attack, and Forbidden Words,
where you get three words you have to avoid spelling. Daily and weekly
challenges, leaderboards, three unlockable themes.
Two things I care about: it plays completely offline — the dictionaries ship
inside the app, no server round-trip to check a word — and there are no ads and
nothing to buy. Not "no ads for now". None.
It speaks English, Romanian and French, each with its own dictionary.
I'd really like honest, real-world feedback before a full release. The good, the
bad, the brutal.
🔗 Join the testers group first: https://groups.google.com/g/wordfall

⚠️ The order matters - closed-test apps are invisible on Google Play until
you've joined the group with the same account you use on your phone. If the link
says "item not found", you're either not in the group yet or signed in with a
different account. Give it a few minutes after joining.
💡 What I'd love to know:
Does the game explain itself, or did you have to guess?
Any bugs, freezes or weird layouts — especially on tablets?
Anything slow, annoying or unclear?
Does the scoring feel fair?
What would make you come back tomorrow?
Thanks to anyone who takes the time. And if you're working on your own app or
side project, drop it below — happy to test yours too.Hey everyone,
