This game has a lof of style, be it artwork, the story, word DISTRACTION covering the whole screen or simple "fart" as one of the words being added in Zine. I like it a lot even though I hate typing games in general.

Wow I didn't expected to see a game this polish in this jam. What an amazing game!!!

The typing controls are a great idea, and you even manage to adjust the difficulty with a test!

I would have liked there to be a bonus after the imposed long word that appears sometimes, for example, having the same letters in the words all validated at once. The bonus duration could have been based on the time it took to type the long word!

It is a very very great work! Congrats!

Thanks! I agree, a little bonus would go a long way. I have an invisible threshold that if any word crosses into, the long word won't show up (just so you don't get it when you have other words super close to the bottom) but it's not a feature that the player would notice. So having something noticeable like boosting all the words up on completing the bigger one or something would feel a lot cooler.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll see about adding it :) And thanks for playing!

A fun typing game! Probably also a good way to practice your typing speed.

I like that it adjusts the difficulty depending on the player's typing speed. That's a neat feature!
