I have been toying with the idea of reimagining Secret Letter, but even if I never get there, it was a bucket list item to port the old Silverlight implementation to OpenSilver, an open source replacement to Silverlight that uses WebAssembly.
So here it is: https://secretletter.plover.net/
There is a web player version and downloads for Linux and Windows with the MacOS build coming soon.
There are quire a few glitches;
At one point i typed “panic” and it kept scrolling forever. It didn’t do it after a restart.
Start a new game doesn’t always work, asking you to save the old game. clicking “no” is ignored.
After several commands it can scroll off the end and you can’t see the new text anymore. And sometimes, it does that “panic” thing again. Unpredictable.
Looks good though!
Yeah only tested the basic UI. It’s open sourced so feel free to report issues on GitHub. The link to the repo is in the footer of the site. I don’t plan to spend a ton of time on it. It’s ported and “mostly” works.
