Hey, can you help me with what exactly is wrong here?

Several issues:

Correct word is OUTDO but matches substring TOO
It fails to match letters that were matched in previous row.

I think you may have misunderstood the instructions. I've added a how-to-play to the README, could you take a look?

T, O, and O turn yellow because all 3 letters are present in the word OUTDO. Since there are two O's in OUTDO, both the O's in your guess turned yellow. If your guess had a letter in the correct position, it would have turned green instead.

I see, I get it now. I thought that was green which led to the confusion (or I thought that's how Termux interpreted green). Anyways, I will give this another shot. Thanks for creating this. I love doing things in the terminal and this is awesome, specially cuz I don't have to install anything.

I am closing this ticket.
