Having a timer running constantly in the corner counting up tenths of seconds makes your version much more stressful than Wordle.
The running timer is unnerving. Is there a way to disable it?
The vision I have for WordHoot is that it can become a competitive multiplayer word game in which speed is a factor, hence the timer. But I will implement an option to hide it for those who don't want it!
I hope your vision pans out! Definitely too stressful for me; I like checking in with my family throughout the day to see their scores, but I worry that the timer might turn that into more of a contest than the fun daily conversation-starter that Wordle is.
There's now a game mode where there is no timer or points. Click on "Time" in the stats box to activate it.
