It's incredible how frustratingly difficult it is to type slight mutations of words that I recognize. Your game was like a research project being executed on my head!

I laughed. I emailed a link to my wife. I thought it was really clever and well done. The music and art go very well and I dig the blowing-away-the-critters animation. Very well done.

Innovation is low because, other than the very clever using-words-to-abuse-my-brain angle... it's a typing game. It's hard for me to label that innovative. Fun and hilarious? Yes! Innovative... hm.

leafo 2012-04-24 02:58

dang this game is a ton of fun!

angelk 2012-04-24 03:04

There should really be a rating for polish, you guys would always score off the charts. Lots of fun to play. I type really fast and this makes fast typing very aggravating. Thankfully, the words don't reset when you mess up. Unfortunately, the words don't let you reset until you're done typing some asinine way to spell something :)

permanent7 2012-04-24 03:23

Really great idea. These games piss me off beyond belief even when the words are correctly spelled. Great polish though.

johnfn 2012-04-24 04:02

Whoa, very nice graphics and a funny concept. I can feel my typing skills declining already!

seagaia 2012-04-24 05:41

Cute, very well polished with graphics. Concept not particularly original but you did something interesting with it with the mispellings! Liked the music, too.

seagaia 2012-04-24 05:42

Also do you have a link to the source? I'd like to see how the letter stuff is handled.

dukope 2012-04-24 15:59

Gets quite hard quite fast, but love the music and visuals.

Nothing exceptionally new, although overall polish (visual\audio presentation) deserves lots of kudos :).

fabricio-brito 2012-04-25 02:45

i was ready to criticize the misspell in "Knogregate" till I played it... hehe
great idea! Congratulations!!

Taht wsa hadrer thna epxected.

chriswhitman 2012-04-25 02:47

Ha ha, very good! Typing words incorrectly is hard. Very polished.

Basically every time I died it was because I accidentally hit the wrong letter and got locked into a slow guy way in the back. Still, totally entertaining for a short game. Great art and catchy music.

30dogs 2012-04-25 03:19

Great idea! Excellent polish. I did have distinguishing the letters U/V/Y occasionally due to the font, but I still enjoyed the game.

doowttam 2012-04-25 03:33

Loved it and will be sharing it. Super polished and really felt like it messed with my brain.

kunonooni 2012-04-25 23:35

That was a blast!

mess110 2012-04-26 07:19

i like the twist with the words. this was amazing!

jeffz 2012-04-26 23:40

frustrating... sometimes I'd mistype the first letter of one word but be looking a different word I was trying to type.

deejorg 2012-04-27 00:36

The game is very good! I most things i like is the misspelled words, the graphics and the mood of the game! Very good job!

jwolf 2012-04-27 00:41

Outnsddngng.

Seriously though, good job.

supersoul 2012-04-27 00:42

Love how even the details on this page are all scrambled. Great!

bneutral 2012-04-28 00:51

Simply fantastic.

dacap 2012-04-28 01:34

I think the best entry I've played so far. Great art and interface.

pov 2012-04-28 01:45

Haha, I loved it. Brilliantly cruel. :D

fireblend 2012-04-28 03:19

Hah, this turned out to be way more frustrating than I thought it would be. Haha, good job!

Shadow 2012-04-28 03:41

amazing music (you can't go wrong with Bach), amazing humor, graphics, concept, everything...
Except for one thing... I didn't quite feel the theme on it. It's quite polished though, and fun as hell.

dr_soda 2012-04-28 04:08

I really don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. I think that if anything I would have liked the ability to type at enemies farther back in the ranks. It seemed like I wasn't able to target some enemies that were in the rear ranks when I tried to do so.

thomcc 2012-04-28 04:38

Extremely frustrating!

Extremely fun :)

ointment 2012-04-28 08:41

Hilarious. Does what it does really well with all the polish.

triplevisiongames 2012-04-28 13:20

Got to give you 5 out of 5 on fun, graphics and audio. Even better on post jam version.

graytest 2012-04-28 13:38

It was a lot of fun and nice graphics.

jigxor 2012-04-28 14:13

I really loved this entry! It was a creative idea, with great graphics, music and gameplay. It was a lot of fun, and one of the best games I've played in the jam.

Great game guys! I really enjoyed it :)

summaky 2012-04-28 14:20

Lots of (frustrating) fun!

mildmojo 2012-04-29 23:16

Nice work! I got to 3'06". Then I accidentally typed the first letter of a *huge* word that had *just* started coming on screen, and I couldn't find a way to cancel it so I had to watch as the advancing army had a field day with my base.

It's kind of like a bizarro Revenge of the Titans typing game. =) Pretty polished. The only thing I'd change would be to add a way to cancel a word so you could switch to a closer one.

incredible-ape 2012-04-30 03:38

mildmojo: We actually addressed the issue you brought up in the Kongregate verson; you can now hit Backspace to cancel out of a word.

catman 2012-04-30 12:39

The best game yet, it was really, really fun!!!!
Awesome music and graphics too, great job guys!

noddy2006 2012-05-01 09:58

Excellent! Interestingly, I found the words much easier to type if I could come up with pronunciations for them. If I could say them in my head, I could type them without thinking about them too much (some of them I could get without even looking at the spelling after I had worked out a pronunciation).

Best game I've seen thus far.

Here's a second try. http://imgur.com/QywtQ

ilo 2012-05-07 00:21

I'm terrible at these types of games. Terrific art and music though.

derosa 2012-05-07 02:24

Wow, really enjoyed it! Being a non-english speaker made it easier to type the words, but I can feel how hard this has to be for a native speaker :) Thanks!

datamosh 2012-05-07 13:14

You don't have an idea how fun and hard this is when your natural language is not english. I'm sure some parts of my brain melted. Good game!

Best description ever.(the game is fun too)

kevinworkman 2012-05-08 02:41

This was really fun. I could see this turning into an fun typing game that kids play to learn how to type. It's interesting how accustomed to certain letter combinations my hands are. I cannot type a Q without typing a U. Great job.

ad-edge 2012-05-08 08:17

Awesome game, fair tricky tho, doesnt exactly ease into it (maybe I need to practice typing more)

Either way, the graphics are spot on and the 8bit audio is good to listen to, the music really adds to the pace. A nice challenge

bombom 2012-05-08 15:18

Aahh! It's so fun! :)

ncannasse 2012-05-09 12:26

Nice :) however while using invreted wdors was a funny idea and adds a little tweak to the game, it is actually quite frustrating to play compared to the classic genre.

matthias_zarzecki 2012-05-09 12:29

Nice work!

Love the idea of typing "slightly wrong" words. The Bach-remix works quite nice aswell.

deejorg 2012-05-09 20:27

Ahhh my head is allways trying to type the correct words hehe. Nice entry, great polush overall, pretty fun too with the steep difficulty curve.

matt 2012-05-10 00:37

Good thing I don't know how to spell!

ranoka 2012-05-13 12:18

Nice Jam entry, liked the idea and execution. Was quite hard, especially since the words were jumbled. I was trying to figure out if there was a story, but made it even harder trying to figure out what it was saying :D

toast 2012-05-13 15:36

Amusing, got difficult very very quickly but I like the presentation and the novelty of mispelling words.
