I found the concept unique and interesting. Agree with the difficulty ramp up, all the big words started appearing at once, didnt manage to stop many angels :D

a really cool concept. even though the player character is just t-posing I still felt like the movement was really nice. I think the word difficulty could have ramped up over time (my first word was “quasimodo”) and I also wish that backspace worked.

also, moving your hands from arrow key to home row to type was kind of challenging; it would have been nice if I could use WASD to move around and then maybe press enter or tab to switch to typing?

again I thought this concept was awesome and I think the potential for a very fun game is in here somewhere.

Really cool interpretation of the theme, I like typing games and having to run to the words before you type them was kind of a neat twist. I wish there was more variety in the types of words that show up but it's cool for a jam game.

I liked the T-posing guy, also the game lags a lot after some angels ascend too high
