Developer Notes

Small game, visible changes

Poople Unlimited is intentionally lightweight. This page records meaningful product changes and explains the technical choices behind the game.

Help center

Added full rules, strategy advice, game-mode documentation, a guide library, developer notes, and a privacy policy. Added a compact help directory to the game footer.

Daily homepage puzzle

The clean homepage began selecting a new date-based puzzle each day. Added a direct path to the current Poople answer guide.

Clean home URL and shareable games

The first game stays at the root URL. Unlimited puzzles generate deterministic gameId links so the same URL always opens the same starting word.

Poople Unlimited launch

Rebuilt the site around unlimited play with a focused tile board, on-screen keyboard, local stats, hints, responsive controls, and a dark interface.

How it is built

The game is plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Puzzle words and graph helpers live in a shared data file. A breadth-first search finds useful routes to POOP for par calculations and hints.

Progress is stored with localStorage, scoped to the homepage's daily identifier or an unlimited puzzle's gameId. The app does not require a login or remote game database.
