sausage is a terminal word forming game, written in Bash.
This game was inspired by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bookworm_(video_game).
The aim is to score points by creating words, moving around in six directions in the grid, using consecutive letters.
When the user created longer words, coloured letters appear. The user can score more points by using these coloured letters.
More points can also be scored, when the user manages to create the bonus words.
When smaller words are created, or low point yielding words, red letters appear in the grid. If not used, these red letters will drop one cell in every turn.
When a red letter reaches beyond the bottom of the grid, the game is over.
The user can also reshuffle the letters in the grid, in order to be able to create words. However, there is a price to this action: the existing red letters will drop one cell, all other bonus coloured letters will be lost, and more red letters will appear.
If the score is among the 10 best scores achieved, it makes it in the Top Ten Highscores.
