No ultrawide support and no easy fix available online. In fact the resolution selection literally doesn't do anything in general.1 found this helpful
A Touch Typing Game based on a House of The Dead game? Sounds odd but surprisingly works. There is a mode that doesn't require typing if you want more classic H.O.T.D gameplay. The story is a love letter to cheesy horror films which is a welcome element. I will 100% be playing more of this to help me improve my typing1 found this helpful
Lots of fun. Wish there were more games like this. No local multiplayer tho. Only online.
Type like a motherf-er. Tons of cursing but its those old arcade style shooters and humor so I guess its ok. There is also a mode to play just the shooting portion with your mouse and keyboard btw.
Stupid, tactless, and more fun than it has any right to be.
I've always had a soft spot for arcade on-the-rails shooter games, and like typing, so this was fun. There is also a classic mode of pointing and clicking, which I played using controller gyro to aim for something like the arcade feel.
