Limitations

Currently the navigation is based on keyboard navigation keys UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT. This needs to be changed to on screen navigation buttons to make it usable on mobile device

TODO

• Add on screen control for worm navigation so it can used on mobile device
• Use an image for worm head to make it look like a worm
• Show word or image of the word that should be formed by the worm
• Show on screen success and failure message
• Make it work like an assessment (Blocker: There are no docs on how to do this)
