Nice score..

It seems that this game doesn't care if you type "FAST" at all..

It only cares if you get those combos...

Retrying level 1...

Level 2 score 100k -useff rank 14

Beat the last level.. Pretty easy game overall..

Now attempting Hardcore mode, you have to type the spaces hyphens everything... and no mistakes...  Highscores are much harder now due to the multiplier drops

Totally worth $8.....

$20.... that's iffy....

Game still suffers from a bit of port-itis...  Locked internal rendering resolution of 720p... even if you set menu to 1080p, the rendering resolution is just scaled up, it does not render at 1080p natively..


Highly recommend everyone get in on the $8 while it's hot to at least support the developers/porting team..

Agreed, def word the $8 but not full price.

Option menu sucks, upscaling sucks, no 2560x1440 and higher is also :(

But what can you expect from a port, enjoying it however.

I've been using 2560x1600 for the past 8 years, so I'm very used to games not having the right native resolution...

But 2013...  at least give me 1080p... jeebus....(http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion/233cd70a.gif)

it's certainly not unbeatable... for the experienced typer... I have a feeling they're saving some of the "super difficulty" for the DLC "dictionary" packs that will be released.

But there will be multi-player incoming as a (free) dlc.. (http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion/4e5dd44a.gif)

with unlimited health cheat i can score as high as 50 000 on easy mode.

I tried hard mode on the prison level, but had to give up on the boss. even with unlimited health, I couldnt type the words fast enough to hurt him.
