The Word Game

The Word Game is a simple 2D word creation puzzle game for iOS and Android. It offers several levels of varying difficulty and an option to use credits to show hints. This was one of the first few games I developed as a professional game programmer. It was done in about a month while parallelly working on other game projects. I learnt a great deal about developing and optimizing content for mobile platforms while working on this project. I also got to learn about implementing some of the backend features such as IAP, Ads, Analytics.
