I actually expected them to scream(that would have been fun xD). The game fits well with the theme and I like typing as well so nice job!

Simple typing of the dead type of game, it works, and is your first ludum dare, so it's a very good work! :)

(Hate the music)

I enjoyed this one. Good work! As a core mechanic, this could be interesting if you extrapolated the concept with additional stuff (more weapons, more mechanics, more dynamic enemies, etc).

Heya, pretty cool quick game. I'd suggest adding the option to mute and also making the words have a difficulty curve... i.e, in the beginning shorter and more well-known words, later on more difficult ones. Graphics are cute, so is the concept, fireballs look great :D
Good luck!

Nice! Had fun with it - seems unfair when it chucks a super-long word at you and it basically does the same thing as a shorter word it could have chosen?

I always like some typing game :) But I'm not sure how can I win? I saw that after a while words stopped appearing, so I got hit and lost.

I think it would be cool if they said some magical formulas, but that's just an idea.

the web version ran out of memory for me. will check later to see if its fixed

It has been done before but a simple and surprisingly fun concept. Should probably have a difficulty setting for slow typers.

This was fun but hard to read some of the words because of the small text. This would be a good game to practice typing and spelling.

Surprisingly fun! I had to play until I won ;)

Great job!

I really liked this. Wish the fonts were slightly more legible.

It was intense! Enjoyed it a lot :) Would use a bigger/clearer font, had trouble to read the words at times. Really nice graphics. Well done!

fun game, good use of the theme.

sojabird 2015-04-27 12:21

Fun little thing :)
it sometimes is really hard to read since the font is a bit un-accentuated (A & O look quite the same and some others)

Overal pretty neat.

Nice concept, pretty fun too - though it was quite hard to read some of the words with that font! I type fairly fast and it was a challenge for me, suggest a slower difficulty curve or having difficulty options for typing skill levels :)

needs a restart button on the web version, it takes a minute to refresh! otherwise good job!

nguyenmv2 2015-04-28 14:26

It works well, but it's inconsistent. The words would vary in length with no warning and threw me off badly. It needs a difficulty system, but overall nice job for a first ludum dare

Nice job finally submitting something. Fun game if a bit difficult at times with some crazy words. Good entry though and liked the music.
