# Pydle
|
|
A word game similar to Wordle, implemented in Python!
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
- Randomly selects a 5 letter word from over 5000 possibilities
|
|
- Tells you what letters are in the right position, which are present in the word but not in the right place, and which are not in the word at all
|
|
- Seed-based, so the word is the same when run on a given day - just like the real thing!
|
|
- Coloured output similar to the original game - with thanks to @sgoudham
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites & Running
|
|
To run from source, you'll need to have Python installed and accessible on your system.
|
|
- Download the repository locally
|
|
- Open a terminal in the **src** folder
|
|
- Enter ```python pydle.py``` in the terminal window.
|
|
- And enjoy!
|
|
Compiled binaries are provided in the releases section for Windows and Unix systems. For Windows, the exe can run as-is. For MacOS/Linux, download the pydle file, adn in a terminal window run the command ```chmod +x /path/pydle```, then ```pydle``` while still in the directory.

|
|
## Future
|
|
I don't anticipate spending a huge amount of time on this in the near future, but small things I'd like to throw in are:
|
|
- Validate that users word is an actual real word
|
