[Announcement] July 2023 Game Jam!

@Kiwiphoenix364 the console log is actually limited to 500 lines of output, so you’re missing a few in your list.

For the gumshoes out there, the last letter in the theme is “c”

All of the hints so far:

  1. Starts with a “P”
  2. 11 letters long
  3. Has 4 vowels (could have repeats)
  4. Ends with a “C”

OH! If it ends in C, in that case…there were probably thousands with those three parameters…but I’ve updated this for the new hint! (This also removes a bug.) It won’t let me make a release but I could use it as an extension and it lets me use a share link on that (not the actual project though, strangely enough). In the future, I plan on allowing certain parameters to not be filled out and chosing which letters are specified as certain letters or vowels.

Now, it is a much shorter list of words (204 choices, most not eligible for a game jam title.) (Same disclaimer as last time about me not looking through all the words.)

According to one of the GPTs :

Here is a list of words that meet the given criteria and could be suitable for a game jam theme:

  1. Patriarchic
  2. Pandemoniac
  3. Pancreatic
  4. Parametric
  5. Panpsychism // it forgets about the ending ‘C’ :joy:
  6. Pathogenic
  7. Perisarcinic
  8. Pentatonic

These words vary in their complexity and potential thematic associations, so you can choose the one that fits your game jam theme the best.

I have to look up all of them :melting_face: :smiling_face_with_tear:

SO far, I’m doing pretty good, tho I am finding it hard to keep it prehistoric and mystical at the same time.
