A Year of WordHopper – Modern DOS Game Development Retrospective (kokoscript.com)

The game is here: https://kokoscript.com/games.html

A web demo is available. I tried it, looks fun. A couple of small problems, (this might be due to limitations in the dosbox on the web?).

1. Can't see the starting letter because the bunny is on top of it. Maybe make it flash until the player has made a move?

2. On my laptop (no numpad), if I hold two arrow keys down for a diagonal move and hit space, the space is not detected.

Being able to try a game like this in the browser without installing anything is a great plus.


Really digging the IRIX-style CSS theme on this website.
