Excellent game. I haven't finished it yet (though I got what I'm pretty sure is the hardest picture word) but the key strategy seems to be to pick a (hard) target word, sketch out some chains from there to some easier ones and then try to reach one of those.
Minor suggestions: better contrast in the tab screen for not-yet-founds, have all instructions in the supporting text (i.e. Tab and backspace too). Maybe allow hyperspacing to any word you've previously got to, although that's maybe a bit radical.
Personally I find the dance-ey style of graphics a bit tiring to look at, but that's just me.
EDIT: I'm finding that I tend to fixate too much on single-char replacements and not enough on anagrams. Curious whether that's just me.
- oneshtein 3y ago4-letter word list helped me a lot to build paths to goal words. Also, I collected all words from code, so I can chase nearest goal. PS. Game works better in Firefox.
