Today I'm excited to finally have this page live and be able to share regular development updates with the community. If this is your first time reading about Zim's Word Game (ZWG), an extra special hello to you! ZWG is a fast-paced word game where you use falling letters to craft the highest scoring words possible. As you level up, the tiles start spawning faster. When a column is full of tiles and a new tile can't be spawned in that column - the game is over.

The game is currently going through private internal alpha testing.

What does "internal alpha" mean?
- Core game mechanics are in place
- Not every feature has been added
- Features that are currently finished are rough around the edges

Current Feature Development
Beyond the core gameplay experience, additional "special tiles" are what adds some fun spice to ZWG. We're currently testing out a "fire", "ice", and "steel" tile type (shown below).

Code, release, test, repeat!

While the development cycle continues, I'll be posting here with updates on features, progress, and the occasional live stream to show off the current progress of the game. In addition to the work mentioned above, enhanced Steam Leaderboard functionality is what is on the roadmap for "what's next".

Glad you asked! The best thing you can do right now is add Zim's Word Game to your Wish List by clicking the "Add to wishlist" button on the store page. In addition, follow the community site to keep up to date with my developer blogs, live streams, and announcements.

Game on!
