I get it, I myself am brazilian. If you want to, you can get the source code and replace the list of words for a french one! :)
Here a list of different languages for the wordlist package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/wordlist

Really nice entry! I've reached 76! I'm German. It was really fun to play! Great work!

That was original. :-) Clever idea. I really liked the graphic style too.

Very interesting idea, I like it!

Unique idea, and well executed. Although I played it for a while, it stopped being fun after about 2 minutes. However, that may have had to do with me getting "X" more than any other letter.

Cool typing game! I always struggle with these games that make me think up words on the fly. =)

The sound got the job done. The impact sounds were good, but the music was pretty repetitive.

I liked how the word display highlighted correct vs. incorrect words (though I found a few it doesn't know). Letting players skip a hard letter was nice, too. And the character art was nice. I liked the way the protagonist flapped his jaw when he was speaking the attacks.

Nice! Just fast enough to feel urgent, but still very playable.

I couldn't figure out what I had to do to win the bonus rounds, so my recent word list got long.

I think it would be fun to have even more restrictions on the word; starting and ending letter, maybe, or extra points for using specific letters within the word.

Pretty funny! Started to get real crazy there near the end. I mean, I should know plenty of words from the English language, right? Well executed concept done with a nice touch of humor.

Nice entry! I like the core idea: it's original and well executed! :) The music is entertaining too, congrats!

Fun typing game! I like that you are forced into the first letter, makes it more challenging.

sanojian 2015-04-30 17:08

Very nice game. I felt like I was getting a lot of Q, Z, X, and Y. Quite a challenge.

Fun game! My high score was 153. It was a little tricky since some words weren't in the dictionary and it got really challenging a couple levels in, but its a neat idea that could be expanded upon to make a more substantial game.

Great work!

Great idea matching the theme perfectly.

Nice entry. It's original and well executed. Neat. Thumbs up ++

edwardgreysky 2015-05-04 17:15

Cool concept well executed
Easy to get in even for a french speaker like me but hard to beat
Well done

OMG Nice one!

justthestudio 2015-05-04 19:04

Really really fun and enjoyable gameplay, pretty big word database. Graphics and sound could be better, but overall experience is for 4 stars! ;)

lizard455 2015-05-04 19:36

Fun game! The mechanics are well executed :D

jordgubben 2015-05-05 19:06

A typing game that lets me pick the words? Two thumbs up!

elpaulo 2015-05-05 21:47

Fun ! Just think about changing the title of the web page :-)
I made mine with phaser too, yours is really well made.

Nice little game! I play word games a lot. The difficulty was kinda slow in my opinion - I'd have liked it to ramp up a bit more quickly. Maybe by making enemies quicker and more threatening and implementing a lives system, it would have helped keep things more interesting. I found the letter limit only restricting for the first two levels or so, then it was a non-issue. It was kinda repetitive until I realised that there were special bonuses for getting words of a certain length - I LOVED that aspect of it. Just for readability, I may have flipped the scene so that the words you were saying would be spelt forwards and not backwards. I didn't really get the theming behind the game, but I guess it worked - maybe a librarian or school kid or something to do with a dictionary would have made more sense.

Good game!

I reached 250 then I gave up, because it was a bit slow for me. So I guess a difficulty setting would be nice. However, I had a very good time playing the game. Well done!

aflatminerstudios 2015-05-06 13:58

Aaack, how many words that start with X do I know?! Really fun, found myself wracking my brain for longer words. Also, points for the title. Totally got me to click. :)

awestsecurity 2015-05-06 14:03

Lots of fun. I usually don't like typing games, but I really enjoyed this one.
The sound got glitchy the farther I got. I think by 150 criminals it was just crackling noise.

arche-san 2015-05-06 14:17

"Kill ! Diarrhea ! Blood ! Delete ! Exterminate ! Xylophone !" Had a lot of fun with your game. Compared to other letter games, picking your own word and seeing immediately if your word is spelled correctly make this game very smooth and fun to play.

linus123xbb 2015-05-06 14:22

Very cool game, and very innovative aswell! I found this very fun :)

farwyler 2015-05-08 06:48
