I enjoy this game a lot! It's a really fun typing game. The mechanics of it really start to shine as the difficulty increases--I really like that it gets darker the more you type words wrong because it makes for a great challenge! The powerups are nice and work well too! There depth of vocabulary is also a fun inclusion, there are so many words I don't think I've ever seen before. It's fun that you basically end up picking pairs of topics for each level. And it's also fun to try to figure out how to build up to a power up as you go through the game like those games where you combine elements. I still haven't completed the game, but I'll play more after I give my hands more of a break for now haha :)

There are some bugs/issues I noticed, but nothing that ruined the experience for me. Going to note them here in case you want to try to fix them (you should if you find the time/energy, this game is very fun!):

  • Sometimes when I pick two elements for a level I get a black screen. Fortunately you save progress, so all I need to do is refresh the page (no idea if that messes with your analytics a bit... sorry if it does!). It seems to never happen the first time I try it, but after I finish a level it seems to happen much more often. If it's helpful, I'm on Windows and Chrome. I would say if you fix anything this is definitely a big one because it could turn some people away. 
  • I think the description for the stop power was wrong? If I remember right (I think it only shows once), it seemed to say that it stops words for a few seconds, but it actually seems to keep them stopped. I was actually relieved it kept them stopped, I think if it was only for a few seconds it might have been a little too weak.
  • It seemed like if I have two of the same power saved up it uses both. I think I only did this once, so not 100% sure if I just typed something twice frantically haha
  • There was one time I think I accidentally used a burn because another word started with it? Also possible I mistyped it.

Realizing now I'm not entirely sure if some of the things I mentioned might be real things--I guess I moved through some parts a bit fast, so I wasn't sure if they were really issues, sorry if I'm mistaken! The big one that is a thing for sure though is the black screen. It seems to show up the moment I click the second element.

Overall, really great job! It's a fun game with a ton put into it! :)

Dude! Thank you so much for the detailed review and heads up on some of the bugs/issues. I am glad you enjoyed the game. I will look into all the things you mentioned today (besides the blacking out when you select certain elements bug, I already fixed that this morning). 

Feedback like this is what keeps me going, thanks!
