About Glyphica: Typing Survival
Typing meets horde survival in this fast-paced roguelite that challenges your speed, accuracy, and strategy. Step into a minimalist arena and dominate the battlefield using your typing skills and your trusty keyboard.
Each build is uniquely yours. Set up your Oscillator and Sentry to take care of a large swathe of territory while you pick off the stragglers, or minmax your main weapon to evolve into an alphabet assassinator? The choice is yours!
Not Your Ordinary Typing Test
Type the word above an enemy to finish them off. Challenge your focus and speed as bigger waves and wicked words try to slow you down and take you out. These wily words also have a few tricks up their sleeves. Deterministic drones will simply edge closer towards you, but egregious enemies like Swarmers will fire their little bullets at you, while Shooters charge up to unleash hell on you.Kit Out; Don’t Keysmash
Furiously fast fingers will never be enough! Upgrade your arsenal with unlockable weapons and loot that can help you make quick work of each wave of words.Each build is uniquely yours.

Lots of fun, multiple difficulties (I like practice mode bc I suck) tower defence game but you type!
i bought a new ergonomic keyboard and my muscle memory is ♥♥♥♥♥♥. nothing forces you to lock in harder than being under pressure of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Dying. also the roguelike genre is like crack so what's not to love tbh Sent From My Moonlander
yes.. typing...
Buy. It. This game will iron out EVERY typing weakness you may have; it'll make you sweat, it'll make you mad, then, you'll fall in love.
This scratched the same itch as Typer Shark did. What I find really interesting about it, though, is that typing quickly isn't enough to get you through levels. As someone who has a 100+ WPM, it can be easy to outstrip the pacing of a lot of typing games and get bored. This game truly rewards synergistic builds rather than those builds just feeling like a "win more" option. The simplistic presentation makes it very readable as a player, so I never feel like I'm losing just because I couldn't tell what was going on in the screen quickly enough.
Awesome typing game :)
