Re: "gobble game"

In: s/smolgaming

Hey, implementor of SpellBinding here.

I used to have a very elaborate history site, with every game archived by date as a gemtext file. The first year or so I actually added commentary, highighting interesting words and their definitions.

After moving to my own VPS and writing a Gemini server specifically for embedded games, I only keep yesterday's game around. Maybe lazy, or maybe horrified by over a thousand files of previous games. Maybe just trying to enjoy _now_ as opposed to accumulating useless information.

But yes, it is very informative to see the previous game and the words you missed.

@lab6 thanks for playing, I'm really happy you're enjoying the game! As for the previous day's words: yeah I've been debating whether to do this, and I think you're right. I should have a chance to add this in the next few days :) (Edit: done!)
