  • I have an idea to make a game, it would be a crosswords, everything is fine, but how do i make it work that when a player goes to one window, types a letter it shows that letter, and when he gets it to the full word. For example the word should be Game, and how do I make that if the player got it wrong it shows that it's wrong. But if he's close then it should show it's close. But if he's right then how do I show him that's right? Can you help me with that?

  • up, help please.

  • Usually, crossword stuff is made with arrays.

    Some thoughts:

    load the puzzle from a JSON file into an array

    run a loop trough every letter and change e.g. the color of the letter

    here is a tutorial that shows you how to load an Array from a text file (AJAX)

    Sorry, I won't do that again.
