    It makes it stand out from the others in the genre. I don’t think it would be a good addition, maybe it would be fine in a sequel or something, although from what I’ve heard the studio has fallen apart since then. But adding a simple combat system when it isn’t the focus would probably just make the game feel indecisive and half-baked.

    I checked the list of 370k english words I downloaded from github a while ago and yeah, its true other than the variants of homeowner (homeowners, homeownership)

    I was looking at some other random words, heres some I found:

    • self: weaselfish, damselfish
    • eye: greyer, honeyed, journeyed, etc
    • bear: beard

    this got me interested so I wrote a program to find each time a small word bridges the gap between two larger words in a compound word, honestly the funnier part of its outputs is the weird ‘compound words’ its finding, like “asp: aspirating: as, pirating” or “at: deepseated: deepsea, ted” (ted, apparently, meaning ‘to scatter hay for drying’). Occasionally it finds good ones, like “ices: apprenticeship: apprentice, ship” or “hen: archenemy: arch, enemy”, and it did find the meow one. It does allow the small word to contain the first word in a compound word, because that can still give some interesting ones like “warp: warplanes: war, planes”. It probably would have been a lot better if I had actually used a list of compound words, it tries to find its own very slowly which does allow it to find any possible combination for any word

    anyways, here’s the list
