• 1.1.3 Hotpatch - 16 August 2026

  Hey folks,Real quick update today! The last build had a bug where pressing the spacebar caused any VOID scoops on the screen to consume the scoop beneath them. I also adjusted the number on the title screen to line up with the current version and adjusted the volume of one sound effect.

• Volume Patch Released - 8 August 2026

  Hey, folks! Apologies for putting this off for a while, but I've finally added proper volume settings to WordScoop. Before, the options were binary on/off toggles. Now, you can set the volume from 0 to 1 in 0.1 intervals. This makes it easier for people who like to mix music louder than the sfx or vice versa. I also fixed an oversight where the title would always play its full "appear" animation at the start of the game, regardless of whether Reduced Motion mode was on.

• Anniversary Update Hotpatch - 7 August 2026

  Hey, folks! Real quick update today. There were a few bugs in the Anniversary update that I caught, of course, only a few hours after uploading it, so I made sure to fix them! One was an issue where Gelato would stay panicking even after the VOID was removed from the bottom of the screen. I also tweaked the credits a bit to fix a username that I misspelled and add one that I missed. Whoops! At least a couple of people have requested a volume slider be added to the game. I completely forgot about that in this update since I use my operating system's mixer, but I'll see if I can get it squared away in another patch. Thank you for your continued support and feedback!

• Anniversary Update Released - 6 August 2026

  Happy One-Year Anniversary! This sure has been a crazy year! Lots of stuff has happened. It simultaneously feels like it's been both longer and shorter than twelve months. I've had three different jobs, and I've worked on lots of different projects!That said, I wanted to make sure I got something out for WordScoop on its one-year anniversary of being out on Steam! This update is focused on accessibility. The changes I've made to this one are all about making the experience of playing it more smooth and welcoming!Saving/LoadingIn the older versions of WordScoop, you were expected to play it all in one go. This is the case no longer! Now, you can save the game and return to the Play Menu. From there, you can pick back up again. Controller/Keyboard SupportNot every device has a mouse easily accessible, and translating input can be a pain! To alleviate this, I added the ability to play the…

  Howdy! Meander Forth, my platform-adventure game, now has a demo available on Steam! This demo features the first three chapters of the game, and can be played here: This game tells the story of an otter named Garret, who must reluctantly use his ice powers to save his friends from a curse and his town from a devious villain!I hope you give the game a try, as well as leave a review for the demo!

  Hey folks, quick update! WordScoop! With Gelato the Otter has been updated to version 1.0.3. This is a small update that makes some Quality-of-Life tweaks for an overall nicer experience. Changes:The game has been migrated from Godot 4.4 to Godot 4.5. This fixed certain visual and performance issues as a side-effect. Gelato's sprite on the title screen has been refined to be more on-model with their finalized design.Volume has been reduced on certain sound effects, making them less jarring to headphone usersCertain words in the dictionary have been added, filtered, or updated to be more accurate and appropriate for the game. I hope this update makes the game a more enjoyable experience!--WhiskerFjords

• Update!! Version 1.0.2 Fixes! - 6 August 2025

  Hey, folks!Thank you for your continued feedback. Because of it, I was able to catch a few issues that flew under the radar when the game first launched. This update brings the game up to version 1.0.2. Changes:Fixed VOID spawning to mitigate the bias towards the left of the MatrixFixed a graphical oversight where Gelato's gloves change color when they clapToned down ring, sparkles, and glow effect of sprinkles in Reduced Motion modeEnabled Godot's "Snap 2D Transforms to Pixel" setting to mitigate artifacting for sprites at fractional positions. This may have unintended effects.Changed the definition of "CAT" to not refer to Biblical methods of torture. Dunno how THAT got in. Fingers crossed these changes make WordScoop a more enjoyable game!

• WordScoop Released! - 5 August 2025

  Hey, folks! WordScoop! With Gelato the Otter is finally available on Steam! It is a paid release for $5.99.If you're unaware, it is a word-search game in a style similar to casual games from the early 2000's! Your goal is to find as many words as you can in a matrix of ice cream scoops while preventing mischievous VOID creatures from reaching the bottom. This game was originally developed as a college capstone project, and was finished up after graduation. I hope you give the game a shot and leave a review. Your feedback means the world to me!
