An endless runner where your typing speed is your only hope for survival...

Escape a relentless zombie horde and navigate through zombie hands reaching from underground by typing the words that appear on screen. Use the arrow keys to move up and down. Challenge a friend to see who can survive the longest!

The aim of this project was to create a game that could help players build a tangible skill (typing) in an enjoyable way. All code, art and sound effects were created by me. The project was tracked with git at github.com/ibaadm/Typocalypse. Let me know if you have any suggestions in the comments!

Add separate views in duel. If one player gets  too far ahead they can accidentally get stuck.

I did think about that briefly, but I left that to be a feature I would implement later if I had the time. Although in hindsight, I don't think it would've taken much longer than the current implementation. Thank you!
