Use of the limitation
the player uses "ink" to write their words; multiple writers are in the game between which the player needs to switch
Cookies eaten

Oh that's my nightmare typing game! Diffuculty ramps up real quick once "adam joins the fight". Great concept and execution but I just am not a person for this genre,
Oh hey! We both did typing games! :D
I really like the mechanic of yours - switching between the different characters really upped the difficulty! But in a good challenge kind of way.
So a couple times I would be typing a word as Adam, but because the word contained the letters e v e in it, it switched to Eve and I wouldn't realize what was happening and have to scramble back to not lose a life. It felt a bit frustrating when that would happen. Maybe if the switch between characters is telegraphed more (a sound effect on switch, or something big visually?) but other than that I don't have anything to add, it's a really neat take on the limitation! Great job!
Got me at my limit pretty quickly. I liked the extra brain work of having to switch between the characters by typing their names, that really broke the repetitive word typing.
Really fun word typer.
And a little tip: The exit button in the Web-Build just freezes the game, maybe remove that :)
Pretty tough for hunt-and-peckers like me; I couldn't get past 100 or so. I don't have much feedback on the actual gameplay, but I will say that I think the menu/front end presentation could have used a little more work, or just been omitted entirely? It doesn't quite measure up to the quality of the in-game stuff and it's not doing anything vital, so the game might have been better off just diving straight in.
But overall it's a neat spin on typing games with pretty stylish presentation; I enjoyed it!
Your concept is both intriguing and enjoyable – I absolutely love it! ^^
10 minutes passed and still no enemy in sight 😑
oh no - I think it is not really clear but did you type: "type to fight" ?
Ahh damn. I typed "eve" the whole time 😂
I hope some others who have trouble will read this before playing. But now after giving it another try it works as intended I guess. Good game overall
