A themed WDC is always fun! The banner for this really confused me at first. I clicked on it and it just displayed an image. It wasnā€™t until later that I went back and realized I could scroll down. Not sure if others are having that same response but it might be helpful to put the text at the top and/or a note to scroll down to see details. Iā€™ve watched a season or two of Stranger Things but donā€™t remember or maybe havenā€™t seen the message in lights episode(s). Is there a spoiler-free link that might explain the context? I get that the app is a bit like [Simon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_(game)). ---

Hereā€™s a rough preview of what Iā€™m making: [https://thunkable.site/w/DGmhYd60t](https://thunkable.site/w/DGmhYd60t) If you choose to skip the intro scene, youā€™ll need to be persistent. šŸ˜‰ The final scene lights up a random 4-letter word once. There are not yet any interactive features to allow you to guess the word. ---

Introducing Thunker Things (defenitly not stolen from @domhnallohanlonšŸ˜‰ ) Quess the right word in this fast paced game, each time you win it goes faster and faster. But be warned because Vecna is watching, If the clock starts ticking your time is almost up, so be quick and find the words. ![Screenshot 2022-07-02 17.33.30](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/8/1/81670f82e7aee8e6b379ac8bb43b8ac73b4455d3.png) ![Screenshot 2022-07-02 17.33.35](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/f/6/f6b93e3e56a39799055fa46cd9928ba21dcd3151.png) > **[thunkablecompanion](https://x.thunkable.com/web-build/index.html?projectId=62c02458c3bc010012df207f&noframe=1&responsive=1&screenId=undefined)** > > Powered by Thunkable ---

Somethingā€™s not working on the timing when you play again. The first letter that appears is often from the middle of the word. For example, the word was ā€œillustrationalā€ but the first letter that appeared was ā€œTā€. ---

Maybe thatā€™s the problem. I donā€™t know how I could tell that without seeing the project link though. It also happens with the initial word. For example, HEMATICS only displayed H E M A T I C. ---

I was working on my version of the game although I wanted to present it with a twist. You need to pick letters from the letters on the top part of the screens (letters of THUNKS) and when you pick the 3 correct letters the door will open. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/e/7ed03a3349a8660d525c1e1d306148b7d583df4f.jpeg) Unfortunately, there was an issue with how the platform handles `groups` and how to position them in the screen which forced me to delay it. Now the the group placement is fixed, I need to redesign my app because the order of components is now in `reverse` so components in the lower part of the `component tree` are now displayed on top of components in the upper part of the `component tree` which is confusing. Hope the developers fix the issue ASAP so I can present my work to the group. ---

My version of the Stranger Things [https://thunkable.site/w/sq9ZTWMu7](https://thunkable.site/w/sq9ZTWMu7) Just to test the game, I provided a cheat feature. If you click on the credit yellow label at the bottom of the screen, you will see the letters to open the door. Have FUN. ---
