Hey all. Been building crosswords.gg for the last couple of weeks. Currently launched the MVP but working on getting some initial users and feedback. Appreciate any feedback or support! Happy to give out free credits to any early power users.

Why crosswords? Most successful media companies and newsletter brands have been using puzzles for years to help with reader engagement. But the platforms and tools these companies are using are somewhat cost prohibitive to the "smaller" content creators.

We're fixing that with an even better product!

Tried a puzzle, but the gameplay is not great (on mobile). It’s very annoying having to click each box to type a letter, rather than being able to fully type it out. Also when selecting a box, the cursor should automatically end up behind the letter so you can easily delete and add a new one. Now you have to be very precise when selecting the box and make sure your cursor is behind the letter rather than in front of it. Also nothing to show me which of my answers were correct or which ones were false. I believe I got them all right, but it didn’t show as finished, so I didn’t know which ones (if any?) were incorrect.
