A brilliant idea — definitely one of the more enjoyable games in the jam. I had a great time playing. Thank you!

Fun and challending! Nice take on a spelling/typing game.

man I'd never played too many typing games before but this one is just banging. I never thought I would have to reach so far into my brain to crunch words out of it (as it happens, I'm not a native english speaker), but I was surprised to remember some quite lengthy or obscure words because of it.

I don't quite see how the concept of a gameplay loop applies here but I honestly don't care, I played a lot and really enjoyed it, thanks for making this and making me want to go and find some more of these games (or make one myself lol)

Thank you for playing! This game was actually inspired by the Roblox game "Word Bomb" and the original JKLM Bomb Party word game. Those games were more about competing against your friends to find words, but I wanted to see what a singleplayer version would be like with a few extra additions. Glad to see that you enjoyed it!

I really like the game, but i think it would be better if there was like a combo system for when you destroy more shapes at once. Cool game tho!

quite a good typing game loved the typing sounds they were so satisfying and the enemy types were also fun  I would say it is a little hard but I am also just not a great typer I also really enjoyed the atheistic.

Nice concept. I'm typing waay to slow, so for me it was super hard, but still had fun.

Good job!

First of all nice double entendre with spells. (-;
This game was hard but a lot of fun. Sometimes a word would jump into my head just from seeing a bunch of letters floating by. Other times I would stare at a three-letter combination for quite a while before I had to admit defeat. Love the concept and well-executed.

Love the feedback. Thank you for the playing!

Getting a comment in after my rating (and still playing) because, frankly? You do not deserve to have to wait any longer to know that someone has enjoyed this game!
The game's premise is really clever! And I have really been enjoying putting my vocabulary to the test. 
That said, whilst not a crime, I do think the "loop" theme on this one has been justified very flimsily. 
That said the artwork and sound design are great, the overall vibe of the game is very relaxing and fun, and I could see myself getting lost for hours in this. 
Great job!

Yeah I will agree that the theme doesn't fit very well and originally the idea was to make a word loop/train. However, I found a word loop to be less fun so I shifted the idea to this because I wanted to priotitze fun even if that meant having to shift futher from the theme. 

Thank you a lot for playing and leaving a comment!
