I really liked the idea and the art style you choose. The execution of the idea though it's a bit too fast or chaotic, idk.
I think the letters come down a bit too fast imo. Also the instructions are too long, I get that there is a complex chaining of letters that give you benefits but I think you could some it up in just a few words or symbols in the game itself, or even to let the player discover it on their own.

Thanks for playing! Yeah, the letters are a bit fast, but are great for typing practice haha.
You should try playing as the mage, his letters fall at half-speed, giving you more time to focus on the words, emulates spellcasting a bit.
And thanks for the feedback on the instructions, I'll work on condensing them.
I'll take a look at your gameplay video and give ya a review back
