Jointter - Daily word puzzle with dots and lines
Show HN: Jointter – A daily word puzzle using dots and lines
Jointter is a fresh take on the daily word puzzle: a 7-letter word is hidden within a network of dots and colored lines. Your mission is to uncover it by using every dot and every green line—while avoiding the red ones. Dragging dots only tidies the picture; it never changes the word. Puzzles increase in difficulty from Monday to Sunday, with a new board every day. Click letters to spell your guess, then submit—you get five attempts. It's a clever, minimalist challenge that blends spatial reasoning with vocabulary, perfect for a daily brain teaser.
A 7-letter word is hidden here. Find it. It uses every dot and every green line, and no red ones.

I found it really hard to understand how this worked at first. I feel that having a tutorial would be extremely useful, show a board, describe the problem, show picking a letter, undoing it, picking the right letter, etc.

Top tip: make your instructions actually readable.
Your LLM has used text with too low contrast, the absolutely pointless and annoying webkit-smoothing: anti-aliased, with text that is too small, cramped and squeezed into place.
People with eyes that are getting over forty years old will start to find this difficult to read.
You might want to consider making important instructions stand out, left-align the text, etc.
And then consider writing them with clarity and simplicity yourself rather than letting the LLM write them. The instructions are crucial. You should own that.
