[Rsgames-beta] Scrabble?

[Kevan]

Hi Ryan,

Sorry for my delayed reply. I'll give an example. I tried putting in the 
word "mute" once, and the game said "etum" is not a word.

Technically this can happen with any word the game gets backwards. Maybe 
there's a specific direction the game checks words?

My suggestion, to prevent this happening in the future, if it keeps 
happening, would maybe be to add a suggestion for marking the start of 
words. There could be a checkbox or something for me to tell the game, 
Hey this is the 1st letter.


Just my thoughts. I don't do sound design, or I'd help with those too.

How about adding in the Rummy background music for Scrabble too? That 
track is several minutes long LOL.
