Release notes for version 0.5.0 (build
+5) — the game speaks Dutch, the
Dictionnaire lands next to the board, and the day turns over at midnight.What is Mot de Minuit?
Once a day you receive 16 letter tiles with Scrabble-like values (1–4) and
3 daily challenges. Assemble one word from the tiles — each tile usable only
once. Your base score is the total value of the tiles your word consumes,
and every challenge you satisfy adds its difficulty-weighted bonus on top.
Everyone plays the same puzzle on the same day, generated deterministically
fromdate + seed— and you get one shot a day: once you submit, the day
is closed.What's new in 0.5.0
- The game speaks Dutch — a language switch in the configuration page
(« Suivre la langue de l'appareil », Français, Nederlands): the whole
app follows the chosen game language — UI, rules dressing, and the daily
pipeline. Each language plays on its own data: the Dutch build ships the
WikiWoordenboek word list and a Dutch frequency corpus, the challenge cards
carry per-language curated examples, and the Wiktionary link follows the
game language too. - The Dictionnaire — form a valid word and the dictionary medallion appears
next to the score; touch it to read the word's definitions, served from
bundled pre-sharded Wiktionary/WikiWoordenboek assets with a link out to the
full entry. Every played word in the historique opens the same page from its
card. - The day turns over at midnight — keep the app open across midnight and
the board resets itself for the new day's puzzle, no restart needed. - Ton Parcours — each revealed previous week is crowned with its own score
card. - The rules wear their success — a satisfied challenge card shows in its
succeeded dressing; « Syllabe répétée » is renamed « Séries de lettres
répétées », the single-vowel card explains its repeat-count wording with two
more examples, and the proper-noun challenge card is dropped. - A new launcher icon — a letter tile M on the night sky, with the adaptive
icon fix so it renders correctly on masked launchers. - Layout fixes — the dictionary medallion never moves the board, the rules
carousel swipes with a mouse drag on desktop, and the score pill is a plain
centered read-out.

MotsDeMinuit 0.5.0 — Nederlands
Release-notities voor versie 0.5.0 (build
+5) — het spel spreekt
Nederlands, het woordenboek verschijnt naast het bord en de dag gaat om
middernacht over.Wat is Mot de Minuit?
Eens per dag ontvang je 16 lettertegels met Scrabble-achtige waarden
(1–4) en 3 dagelijkse uitdagingen. Vorm één woord van de tegels — elke
tegel slechts één keer bruikbaar. Je basescore is de totale waarde van de
tegels die je woord verbruikt, en elke behaalde uitdaging levert zijn
moeilijkheidsgewogen bonus op. Iedereen speelt dezelfde puzzel op
dezelfde dag, deterministisch gegenereerd uitdate + seed— en je krijgt
één poging per dag: eenmaal ingediend is de dag gesloten.Wat is er nieuw in 0.5.0?
- Het spel spreekt Nederlands — een taalkiezer in de configuratiepagina
(« Suivre la langue de l'appareil », Français, Nederlands): de hele
app volgt de gekozen speltaal — UI, spelregels en de dagelijkse pipeline.
Elke taal speelt met eigen data: de Nederlandse variant bevat de
WikiWoordenboek-woordenlijst en een Nederlands frequentiecorpus, de
uitdagingkaarten dragen per-taal uitgewerkte voorbeelden, en de
Wiktionary-link volgt de speltaal mee. - Het woordenboek — vorm een geldig woord en het medaillon verschijnt
naast de score; tik erop om de definities van het woord te lezen, uit de
meegeleverde Wiktionary-/WikiWoordenboek-data, met een link naar het
volledige lemma. Elk gespeeld woord in de historiek opent dezelfde pagina
vanaf zijn kaart. - De dag gaat om middernacht over — houd de app open over middernacht en
het bord reset zichzelf voor de puzzel van de nieuwe dag, zonder herstart. - Ton Parcours — elke onthulde vorige week wordt gekroond met zijn eigen
scorekaart. - De regels dragen hun succes — een behaalde uitdagingkaart toont zich in
haar geslaagde versiering; « Syllabe répétée » heet voortaan « Séries de
lettres répétées », de klinkerkaart legt haar herhalingsformulering uit met
twee extra voorbeelden, en de eigennaam-kaart is geschrapt. - Een nieuw app-icoon — een lettertegel M op de sterrenhemel, met de
adaptive-icon-fix zodat het correct toont op masked launchers. - Layoutfixes — het woordenboekmedaillon schuift het bord nooit, de
regels-carrousel veegt met een muissleep op desktop, en de scorepil is een
sobere gecentreerde uitlezing.

Release notes for version 0.4.0 (build
+4) — the two-tab statistics,
the parcours trail and the difficulty-weighted challenge bonuses.What is Mot de Minuit?
Once a day you receive 16 letter tiles with Scrabble-like values (1–4) and
3 daily challenges. Assemble one word from the tiles — each tile usable only
once. Your base score is the total value of the tiles your word consumes,
and every challenge you satisfy adds its difficulty-weighted bonus on top.
Everyone plays the same puzzle on the same day, generated deterministically
fromdate + seed— and you get one shot a day: once you submit, the day
is closed.What's new in 0.4.0
- A two-tab statistics page — « Cette semaine / Tout le temps »: the
running week's total as the hero number with the best week and the weeks
played in a row as constellation chips, the three challenge rows for the
chosen scope, and the day-by-day letters with their scores. The page is
read-only now: it wears the night-sky backdrop and constellation panels,
no forgiveness row, no day taps. - The historique page on the night sky — played words become
constellation cards built from the challenge cards' own pieces (ornate
gold frame, medallion, shield badge), the day's best word lit in gold. - Ton Parcours grows — a week score card crowns the seven day cards, the
cards run a third slimmer so the freed space breathes below the week, and
« Voir la semaine précédente » reveals past weeks one tap at a time, each
named by its dd/mm dates, with a gilded weekday initial on every card and
section breaks between weeks. The trail stops at the first unplayed week. - Challenge bonuses scale with difficulty (1–5) — the flat +2 is gone:
palindromes and repeated letter groups award 5, the hard structure cards 4,
rare or highly specific forms 3, moderate cards 2 and the common ones 1;
the déclinable count rules score exactly their count. - A configuration page in the night-sky dressing — sound effects switch,
the whole screen wrapped in the board's starfield. - Board titles that follow the week — a day of the running week is titled
by its weekday (« Mots de mardi »), a finished week's day by its date. - Layout fixes — the front page fits the 7-inch tablet, the board is
size-capped in landscape, and « Inviter un ami » is removed.

2026-09-08 17:46:54 +00:00 | 73 commits to main since this releaseMotsDeMinuit 0.3.0
Release notes for version 0.3.0 (build
+3) — the night-sky restyle and
the Parcours release.What is Mot de Minuit?
Once a day you receive 16 letter tiles with Scrabble-like values (1–4) and
3 daily challenges. Assemble one word from the tiles — each tile usable only
once. Your base score is the total value of the tiles your word consumes, and
every challenge you satisfy adds +2 on top. Everyone plays the same puzzle
on the same day, generated deterministically fromdate + seed— and you get
one shot a day: once you submit, the day is closed.What's new in 0.3.0
- Ton Parcours — your journey through the week — a new day-by-day gateway
between the title screen and the board: every day of the week is a
constellation card threaded on a gold line against the night sky, with its
score, its record, and one tap to play it. - The midnight board — the board is fully restyled: ivory tiles with dark
ink and chunky 3D faces, a thin glowing gold line under a valid word, a
darker score pill with a gold glow, and the night sky flowing through the
transparent app bars. - Restyled challenge cards — constellation layout with a gold frame, an
emblem medallion, and a small-caps label; more breathing room above the
stack. - Play the whole week from the stats page — the day-strip pills tell
locked and improvable days apart, and every day of the running week is
playable from the strip. Future days are firmly locked out (no button on
the parcours, a dialog on the stats strip). - Finer board mechanics — the board holds still while the word grows, the
word row is airier, and the today card opens directly with Jouer instead of
Améliorer. - Layout polish — the title sits on three lines, the parcours card is
bigger, and the full week fits on screen.

MotsDeMinuit 0.2.0 Stable

2026-09-03 05:20:33 +00:00 | 119 commits to main since this releaseMotsDeMinuit 0.2.0
Release notes for version 0.2.0 (build
+2) — the history-and-stats
release.What is Mot de Minuit?
Once a day you receive 16 letter tiles with Scrabble-like values (1–4) and
3 daily challenges. Assemble one word from the tiles — each tile usable only
once. Your base score is the total value of the tiles your word consumes, and
every challenge you satisfy adds +2 on top. Everyone plays the same puzzle
on the same day, generated deterministically fromdate + seed— and you get
one shot a day: once you submit, the day is closed.What's new in 0.2.0
- The app opens on your statistics — a new weekly stats page is now the
start screen: navigate week by week ("Semaine N"), see each day's score in
the per-day strip and the weekly table, and race yourself with the
This week / Personal best / Last week chips. - Your streak, with its flame — days played in a row, your best streak
ever, and a flame on the start screen while a streak is alive to protect
("Reviens demain pour ne pas casser ta série"). Missed days this week are
shown honestly with a make-up nudge. - Game history (day journal) — a new Historique page lists every valid
word you captured during the day with the points it earned, best first;
after you submit, the day's best possible words per score level are
revealed alongside it. - Finished days are permanent — the submitted day's board, challenge
cards, word and final score are stored and restored exactly as you left
them: relaunch-proof, and reopenable any time via Voir la partie jouée. - Sound effects — a chime when a new word becomes valid, a fanfare when
you break your day record, and a sealing resolve when you submit. - Confetti — bursts when you break your record and when you submit; the
celebration grows exponentially with the word's score (safely capped so an
astonishing word can never flood the phone). - Fixes — the Play button no longer hides on already-played days, the
board reopens cleanly when the seed changes, and the stats page refreshes
the moment a word is submitted.

Release notes for version 0.1.0 (build
+1) — first public release.What is Mot de Minuit?
Once a day you receive 16 letter tiles with Scrabble-like values (1–4) and
3 daily challenges. Assemble one word from the tiles — each tile usable only
once. Your base score is the total value of the tiles your word consumes, and
every challenge you satisfy adds +2 on top. Everyone plays the same puzzle
on the same day, generated deterministically fromdate + seed— and you get
one shot a day: once you submit, the day is closed.What's in this release
- The daily board — a 4×4 grid of letter tiles, each showing its letter and
power value; a word row that grows as you place tiles (tap a placed letter to
truncate from there, shuffle the remaining tiles). - A deterministic daily puzzle — tiles, values and the 3 challenge cards are
derived purely fromdate + seed: same board for everyone, no server round-trip,
a new game at midnight. - 3 fixed daily challenges as cards with live green/neutral badges while you
type — +2 per satisfied challenge, no penalties. - French dictionary validation — only valid words can be submitted; the board
turns green the moment your word becomes valid. - Full scoring with breakdown — base = sum of the consumed tiles' power, plus
challenge bonuses. - Submit → reveal — the day closes on submit; you immediately see your result
with the day's best words per score level (from a frequency word corpus). No word
before midnight scores 0. - Two apps, two languages — a French app and an independent Dutch app, shipped
as separate per-language builds. - Linux AppImage — a self-contained desktop build, attached to this release as
a download asset. - A complete, FOSS-first release pipeline — dual build flavours (FOSS for
F-Droid with no analytics; Play flavour with Firebase), F-Droid reproducible
reference-build tooling, and Fastlane store metadata.
