This game turned out to be a really enjoyable experience! I appreciated the clever integration of coding elements into the typing challenges, which brought a refreshing twist to the gameplay. The visual style is solid, though I think it could benefit from a bit more flair as the difficulty ramps up. The idea of typing out code snippets was particularly engaging, and I'd love to see more of that throughout the game. Overall, you've crafted something both fun and innovative.

Fun game! I wish the onboarding was slightly improved but since the controls are pretty intuitive and the genre is well known this wasn't too big of an issue. I wish there was more escalation in terms of visuals, SFX or more noticeable changes to the gameplay when the difficulty increases but overall I really liked it! Plus having more longform prompts would be cool (I loved the coding ones to destroy the spaceship!).

This was unexpectedly fun and I didn't know I wasn't good at typing that bad. lol

I wish that casing of each letter was slightly more obvious. But this was great :)

I found this really fun! I wish the bombs came a bit faster, as I found them pretty easy to deal with one by one


My jam entry is also about typing if you wanna check it out!

Very enjoyable typing game! I thought it was really cool how you integrated code used for the game for the typing gameplay, it gave a nice twist to the genre. I would have liked to see more of the singular or two-line code blocks to replace some of the single letter bombs because typing out the code was more enjoyable for me. Overall this game is very well made and most importantly fun, great job!

Top-notch creativity, has potential to be expanded to a full game by adding more upgrades and enemy attacks.

Pretty cool game! I enjoyed typing up the code snippets more than typing the singular characters, its unique how what you have to type comes from the game's code btw. I think this game could help devs get faster at typing if there was more typing up code and less singular character typing. Overall cool game :)

Cool game. The difficulty fluctuates quite a lot, between the really slow bombs and the incredibly demanding code sections. However, it was fun trying to quickly type out a large block of text. So all in all, an interesting game.

This game is actually really fun and could be used to teach people how to type faster and better. The idea is really good and the upgrading fits the scale theme. Really clean idea with some polish it could be a really good game. Good Job.

Nice simple typing game. Love the touch of having C# Unity code in there, though it might get lost on non game dev people.Good luck!
