Dynamo Challenge 03: Wrong tool with Great Output

@jostein_olsen this sounds fun, if you want to enter it in! :smiley:

This would be a super cool use of Dynamo :smiley: In the past, I had wanted to create a “Beer Recipe Optimizer” where you selected your flavor profile, IBU target and base malt and it gave you options… but didn’t get around to it :roll_eyes:

Did anyone try my hangman game using Dynamo Player?

It’s glitchy - for some reason the head appears on the first guess even if the guess is correct.

Anyone shed some light on this?
