This game is hard as hell! I thought I was a fast typer, but apparently not, lol

Very cool idea, but I kept getting stuck against walls and having to type RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT to turn around

I agree with what others said. Nice concept that puts a unique spin on typing games. But also missing fullscreen.
I found the words on the track very hard to use. More often than not they were harmful turning me around. I know that my ship is points in the direction of the word but it was still hard to use. More often left or right was better to use.
In addition I often was stuck on the side of the track :(
Nonetheless great game with nice concept. My time was 2:47

It's a very cool concept. I don't remember the last time I saw a typing simulator that wasn't boring. I really miss the full-screen mode, but everything else is top notch. Very nice work!

I didn't expect there would be games like this :) unrealistically cool idea, writing words to move around. The graphics are not perfect, but I liked it!

pretty cool concept, haven't played this type of typing game in a long time.  Turning with left and right seemed to be not viable who type as slow as me haha

Developer(+1)

thank you for the feedback! with more time i think we would add some word difficulty slider in the options for people that aren't fast typers

This game is super cool! The sound effects were really satisfying. I loved the gameplay of having to type in the words to get the spaceship to move.
