would love to see this in an arcade. as a game you purchase though, it could stand to have a little more variety
Typecast is a pretty unique game and it can be quite addicting, with a high skill ceiling at that. You control your mouse cursor as you have to avoid ennemies which you can kill by hitting the right keyboard key if they're within your attack range, and from then on it gets more complicated.
The concept is surprisingly fun and really allows the player to try and progress. The leaderboard is a really nice concept I love seeing in a game like this, it really pushes you forward and encourages you to beat your score. The only other game I played that did this was Killbug.
The presentation is also really nice, from the visuals to the sound effects it's very pleasing. I especially like the main menues and the voice over which reads some of the options like START!

An endless arcade top-down typing of the dead. Really fun visuals and engaging combat. Don't buy the game looking for some overarching meta-progression, but great fun for a short session from time to time.
I suck at this, partly due to my eyesight, but it's pretty fun and I like the visuals and music. The "meta progress your own brain" description is godlike.
Wanted to play this more, but it's just not for me. Well made though, and I am sure there are people out there that this is The Game for.
I thought I would play a nice relaxing game in between Cuphead but mistakenly picked this. This is fucking wild and really addicting to try to beat your best. There's no meta progression, and there's only a leaderboard to climb. I will definitely keep playing this here and there, just trying to get better and farther in the later loops.
