Love the LCD look!
Fun, and very stylish!
Thanks! I was actually working on a non-tweetcart number game, but it was too complex and not very fun, and in brainstorming for TTJ, I figured I'd try making a much simpler version of it, and it's actually more fun. I've had some comments from people interested in a less-limited version, so I'm trying to figure out some ideas for that.
