Show HN: A Wordle-Inspired Puzzle Game with Images

Howdy HN folks!

I’ve been working on What The Pix Say (WTPS), a Wordle-inspired word puzzle game where you solve phrases by guessing the meaning of images.

Here’s how it works:

- Each phrase is represented by a set of images. - You drag the images into place to form a phrase or sentence. - The game accepts partial matches, so you don’t always need to be exact. For example, an image of a theater might represent “the,” or an image under a bridge could symbolize “under.”

I use AI to help generate the games and images (they can be quite hilarious at times).

Would love to get your feedback before I release this into the wild!

Cheers, Shaun
