GenCross V 0.6
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
This is a beta for GenCross. GenCross is the world's first application that allows you to make, play, randomly generate, and share mini crosswords.
A mini crossword is a crossword where 10 five-letter words are arranged in a 5x5 grid. It was created by the New York Times in 2014.
You can make mini crosswords by typing them out or selecting the "Generate Mini Crossword" button. By default, the app will try to "fill in" the mini-crossword you already typed. You could also add in new words using the "Add words" button.
Crosswords can be saved as .mncd files or MCND codes using the computer's clipboard. A MNCD code looks like this:
#MNCD ¨¢´W©¢°W¢¨ª°´W¯ª¯¦W¨°µWÊÒÖÊÅÕÉÂÕÎÂÌÆÔÚÐÖÓÄÂÓÔÈÐ×ÓÐÐÎ×ÓÐÐÎW¢ÍÕÆÓÏÂÕÊ×ÆÔÑÆÍÍÊÏÈÐÇÉÆÍÍÐW¤ÐÎÑÂÏÚÇÐÓÑÆÐÑÍÆØÊÕÉÈÆÏÆÕÊÄÅÊÔÆÔWÕÉÆÍÂÓÈÆÔÕÅÊÈÊÕWªÉÂ×ÆÂÄÒÖÊÓÆÅW©ÐÍÅÐÏÕÉÆÓÆÀÀÀÀÐÏW±ÆÓÄÆÏÕÂÈÆÑÂÊÅÐÏÇÐÓÆÊÈÏÄÖÓÓÆÏÄÊÆÔWÓÆÇÍÆÄÕÔÐÎÆÍÊÈÉÕW¤ÂÕÖÔÕÉÂÕÊÎÑÓÐ×ÆÔÔÌÊÏW¥ÊÔÕÓÆÔÔÔÊÈÏÂÍW
You can easily share the MNCD codes online.
When you play a mini crossword, you can pause the game or get a hint
You can play an already-made crossword by using the sample.mncd which comes with the app, or with the MNCD code above.
Please note that being a beta, it will probably be glitchy. Feel free to share bugs you find in the comments respectfully.
