How the hell did you get 150... I can't get past 41... :/ lol

edit: alright, got to 86. I guess you just eventually remembered the list of words used until you could repeat them as they came up?

176 is my best, a tip is after chaing a bunch of letters together hit space, it will slow down the game for a second and give you time to read the letters.

Aha! Tricks! I got to 147 without. I will try to keep chaining without hitting space. Seems more a challenge.

;) nice   now I am not sure if you get more points for the amount of letters or for spacing on words correctly?

It seems that if you drop enough in a chain, then space, you get up to 20 extra points. If you keep hitting space, you don't get anything, but it still slows down a bit.

They might also be based on amount of letters in a word, but it seems roughly like this:

one - 0
two - 4
three - 8-10
four - 15
five+ - 20

Just found a small "?" on the screen - I give you the text it holds
"drop 1.4 by markus persson 2013

press d to start playing. type blinking letter to advance. press space or enter to submit letters. bonus points if more than four letters. game gets faster. game over if letter leaves screen. typing wrong letter speeds up.

everything is real. nothing is real."


EDIT: if you want the max 20 extra points space when the string of characters at the bottom are blinking Pro top #2 :)

So if you string together many words before you hit space or enter, it counts as one big word.

Lower resolution, turn down contrast.. makes the game alot easier on the eyes.

This game has made me realize I have trouble typing words with w or q in them. I keep hitting one or the other when I don't mean to.

Me neither. Apparently it needs a plugin that is not available under Linux.

It requires Unity web player. Idk if it's supported on Linux or not. Edit: after a quick Google search, you may be able to play it using Google Chrome. Can't test it out right now, but it may be worth a shot.

I managed 440 earlier this morning before I knew the spacebar thing. I just memorized all the words, since there aren't that many haha. I'll have to go back and play again

I tried Chrome, without success. Well, I should be studying anyway.

I didn't use space on my 673 run or any of my others.. I found it made things harder.
