Very funny minigame! Given the responses here, it would be nice to have a "browse as anonymous" button with another ending. Or perhaps an intro screen before the account creation to frame the account creation as part of the game.
But abcabc666 is a badnamer and his advice should likely be ignored.
—— Useful advice on security, don’t ever give a username you’d actually use in random websites, just make something up, and obviously use a password generator.
What an interesting point, though.... the line noise I entered first to avoid actually making an account proved that's a bad idea in this game. ;-)
--Mike-- did ok, though.
Although, I'm not sure if the game or some of the comments here is more entertaining...
More imoortantly though, I found a bug: My login does not work!
But it says 24% are better... It would be interesting to know how the ranking works.
(defn score [s]
(let [s1 (st/lower-case s)
s2 (remove-nonstandard s1)
s3 (remove-numbers s2)
splits (split-words s3)
all-words? (= (count s3) (count (apply str splits)))]
(cond-> {}
all-words? (assoc :all-words 0)
true (assoc :num
(* (count s)
(if all-words?
-60
-100)))
(names s3) (assoc :names 1000)
(and (dictionary s3) (not (names s3))) (assoc :dictionary 1000)
(not= (count s2) (count s3)) (assoc :numbers -500)
(not= (count s1) (count s2)) (assoc :nonstandard -500))))My constructive criticism... and I'm not trying to be a jerk about this, what little I saw of the game looks pretty cool... but... would you consider not having to sign up for an account before playing. Even if an account is required for the game mechanics, maybe randomly generate a user id and let the user start playing. Then if they like it they can change their username and add a password.
Again. Not trying to be a jerk here. I appreciate the hard work you've put into this thing.
Just so you know, you are technically losing the game right now :)
