Ghostwriters App written using Corona SDK in Lua (https://coronalabs.com/corona-sdk/). It's a scrabble-like game, but plays more like reverse scrabble. A random board is generated, and players must "grab" tiles before playing. Artwork by Joao Fiuza and myself. Requires backend running in heroku, see my ghostwriters-webapp repo. Barely made any money with in-app payments so took down the heroku servers, needed non-hobby nodes

Lua 100.00%

Bug: tiles dragged onto board can become small size if you let go really quickly (race condition)

Non-functional change - don't use "global" module variables anywhere, use data attached to the scene object
