WTI New Typing Score Feedback + More October Update


Excited for how this game is developing and for the feedback I’ve received, especially at in person events. Full version is still a few months away, but it is feeling closer and closer. As a solo indie dev any and all comments, shares, likes have a tremendous impact. This quirky game about the power of words, made in a very flexible way (input, cozy breaks, flexible challenge choice risk/reward) to welcome all players is a special thing. Thank you for being here and helping me grow this little word battle loving community.

October WTI update includes immediate typing score feedback for those who battle using typing. Easier health drops for word combos. Also includes the usual ongoing refinements and bug fixes.

  • typing score shows anytime you are typing words, instantly see your current best combo and wpm
  • level complete summary stats now more visual
  • word weapon dictionary update
  • tuned theme combo timing to be easier to get a health reward drop
  • tuning collision knock back and out of bounds recovery
  • book sanctuary bonus cash-in countdown now faster
  • re-introducing the spawn gate opponent
  • opponents improved movement logic
  • bug fix for drops near player, less likely to drop on top of player
  • additional bug fixes

Typing got the most attention this update, but not to worry if you’re into using game controller, mouse, or touch screen. More refinements to come for all input options.
