Very fun game, but the dictionary doesn't recognize some of the words I type in that I swear are real (one of them was 'understandable'). Other than that I really enjoy it
it's surprisingly not as easy as you might think. it is kind of annoying when you enter a word like "swabs" or "burns" which are both perfectly legitimate words by the way, and it says they can't use it. otherwise, i think it's a pretty cool game.
It wont even let me START the game like i tried typing next pressing next typing the arrow TYPING A ARROW i even downloaded ittt nothing workss TvT someone whos brainier than me come help
This is a great game, the only issue I have is that sometimes a customer asks for a word with the letter they are allergic to. For example: Customer asked for a word containing the letters a and y, customer is allergic to a.
It's certainly doable, but I finished this project a long time ago and I'm working on new things. I might revisit this later on, I love spelling games!
Ahh this is super fun! Would love to see it on iOS or something because I could play this forever on the train. I only wish we could see what words we entered at the end, but that's just because I like to brag, haha.
through playing the game I noticed the things most excluded were modifiers to words, like adding an s, -es, -er, etc. though you're right that having that listed as a rule would be helpful!
Nice presentation, but I find it to be way too hard. Perhaps either lowering the difficulty, or making adding ever increasing goals, or something would make this more of a difficulty, rather then just having a rather ambitious goal at the beginning, and having random difficulty spikes with each request.
I really like the idea here and the presentation is simple, but charming. Couldn't beat it as I would always reflexively hit backspace at some point and reload the previous page, which isn't the dev's fault.
While the gameplay may be simple or basic, it's still pretty demanding for people, that don't have English as their first language (as you well know :D ) - so I found it to be a sweet challenge. Also, I really loved the typewriter. Not just how it looks like, but also the sound design. <3 It's great that you didn't just add the typing sounds, but also for the 'ripping out' of the paper. Great work! Happily I included your Ludum Dare 41 entry in one of our compilation articles about the jam as well as it's featured in the corresponding gameplay video. :)
I LOVE typing games, and this was just original enough that it was really fun. :) I hope you don't mind but I made a short little video of it. Thanks for making this game!!
So I really love this game: it gives me a chance to flaunt my vocabulary, and the ambiance: just the sounds of the typewriter, everything in black and white, oh. I love. My only gripe is that sometimes I write words that I know are words, but aren't accepted. Franchising, most words ending in -ed, a few in -y... Anyway. My highest was around 1700 something.

So cute! Great game and it made me think
i did it first try!!!
i totally get not accepting the bigger and longer words but "gamer"? is gamer not a word? the dictionary needs an expansion lol

How did you make it so that when a word in construct it appears on the screen and there is also an action?

idk i fullscreened it, then did the right arrow button. if that doesn't work, try uninstalling it and reinstalling it again.

plz fix the ''diccionary'' in the description. thx homie
fr "burger" didnt work
This is a great game, the only issue I have is that sometimes a customer asks for a word with the letter they are allergic to. For example: Customer asked for a word containing the letters a and y, customer is allergic to a.
testosterone looks tasty, our customers will enjoy it
*uses a wordfinder* oh nice game
you could make backspace and left arrow BOTH delete things
torture sounds tasty
I have a question, how did you decide the letters for each request and which ones to avoid?
I honestly can't remember hahaha, it was so long ago. I'm guessing I probably hand-picked the letters that can appear on the requests.
This is my favourite game on itch, I always go back to replay :)
I love this form of typing game. Do you think you can implement an endless mode?
It's certainly doable, but I finished this project a long time ago and I'm working on new things. I might revisit this later on, I love spelling games!
I look forward to whatever you create next!
The rules made me anxious. It made me feel like I was going to do something wrong lol
I believe I noticed a typo in the Rules! The second rule says "our client expects real worlds". Shouldn't it say "words"?
Yeah, that's totally a typo!
Whelp... Looks like you didn't manage to get the 1500$. Things are looking bad for you!
dang this is real hard for my bad memory
I typed "cutting" they said that it looked tasty????
"underwear"
nice, this looks tasty
it took me so long but I did it...![]()

very fun
Perfectly good words keep getting rejected with no explanation! Either expand the dictionary or warn players of what kind of words are excluded.
through playing the game I noticed the things most excluded were modifiers to words, like adding an s, -es, -er, etc. though you're right that having that listed as a rule would be helpful!
i kept trying to use effervescent but it didn't consider that to be a word either.
Apologies for that! It was the first time I implemented one of these systems and looks like I chose a poor dictionary.
No problems! I still really enjoyed the game and it added a bit of challenge as I had to try and figure out what words it would accept! :D
The game is very good and rather challenging. BTW I want a job like this where you tipe words that cost 10 dollars and much more)
That was fun! It would make a cool competitive multiplayer game! Thank you!
lovely idea & presentation. I am really really bad at it (i am bad at all typing games), but it was still great fun.
This is a really good game and I like it
<3

I really love this game! Simple, and addicting! What game engine did you use?
Construct 2 :-)
I LOVE typing games, and this was just original enough that it was really fun. :) I hope you don't mind but I made a short little video of it. Thanks for making this game!!
This is lovely! Thank you :-)
Loved this game, took multiple tries to finish it, but I loved every second of it. Thank you and congratulations!
Neat game! Reminds me of old days at school play wordgames with pen and paper :)
So I really love this game: it gives me a chance to flaunt my vocabulary, and the ambiance: just the sounds of the typewriter, everything in black and white, oh. I love.

I generally avoid typing games, but damn, this is a nice one (especially for being in 9 hours!)
