Neon Ships: The Type'em Up Shooter

If you like shmups _and_ typing very quickly, this is worth a buck. The gist - 3 ~90 second, non-random waves. You type short pop culture phrases to activate a mega laser for a brief time, while dodging bullets (keyboard controls - wasd or esdf; any keys that are part of the phrase will _also_ move your ship). You get 3 shields. Score is based on efficiency/speed. I was able to complete the 3rd wave after less than an hour of play. There are achievements for a perfect run, which seems like only a few people have managed so far - so don't expect to 100% it unless you are _very_ good at both typing and shmups.

i purchased this game for around $2 and it really pretty fantastic. You are in the zone of a top down shooter, displacing enemies reminiscent of Galaga the old 80's game. The twist here is that you must practice your typing in order to launch a powerful canon necessary to destroy some of the harder enemies. Graphics are a colorful neon and quite beautiful to look at. Sound and music is apropos to the visuals and quite effective. Recommended! :-)

Very fun concept. Hoping to see more of this.

[h1]Shoot 'em up combined with typing[/h1] As a teen, I took a touch typing course, and it remains one of the most practical skills I ever learned in school. As a side-effect, I find typing games, particularly when combined with other genres, oddly endearing and fascinating. This is one of those games. [h1]Dodging and typing at the same time[/h1] With three hit points, you set out to survive through three waves of enemies, each culminating with a boss ship. Your ship is controlled with WASD, with no way to change this. The ship auto-shoots, so no need to worry about that. However, the base weapon is rather weak. The gimmick is that there's always a phrase to type out and when finished, the ship shoots out a deadly gigalaser that deals enormous damage and also destroys enemy bullets. In principle, all English letters and numerals are used in the game. In practice, there's maybe few dozen (im)famous phrases from pop culture and history that repeat at random. To be able to type, your ship has to be above a glowing "typing line" where dodging is understandably more difficult due to being closer to the foes and their bullets. The formula works well and is enjoyable, although with only three waves it's a rather short experience. [h1]Technical stuff and trouble[/h1] [i]Neon Ships[/i] supports dozen different keyboard layouts from QWERTY to DVORAK to some more exotic variants, though you need to switch it manually in the pause menu. In the menu, you can also adjust volume of music and sound effects and switch between windowed and fullscreen modes. While playing in fullscreen, I had an annoying issue that whenever the game would start anew (i.e. when I lost), the game would re-adjust resolution, causing the monitor to flicker between several resolutions and/or aspect ratios, until it finally relaxed to the one it was using to begin with but with the game minimized in the process. I'd then have to click it to re-focus it again. After that, it worked like charm, right up until the next retry. I doubt that the same trouble exists in windowed mode, though; I just prefer playing my shmups in fullscreen. [h1]Half an hour of excitement[/h1] Being a competent typer and a mediocre shmupper let me beat the game with all achievements in less than 30 minutes. With luck and skill, it would be doable in even less, since all it takes is to be fast and dodge all bullets. Afterwards, there's Steam Leaderboards to climb for score attacks if you're into that. It's a good proof of concept. I'd like a bigger game with the same idea expanded. For now, even with the technical trouble, this is worth a shot, particularly on sale (got mine for €0.57 / -64%).

[h1] В эту игру лучше играть вдвоём - один на самолётике, а другой будет набирать текст [/h1] Но опять же многое портит кислотная расцветка - смотреть на это банально больно глазам. В целом идея может и занятная, но это очередная чистейшая аркада на рейтинг. Больше тут особо делать нечего. Да и таких леталок в магазине очень много, чтобы зацикливаться именно на этой. Активный экран тут по традиции для аркад маленький. Слева помощь, справа - рейтинг. На 4 кнопки направления - управление кораблём, остальные кнопки - набор текста. В качестве текста используются известные цитаты вроде "REDPILL", "RUNFORESTRUN", "HULKSMASH" и т.д. В целом игра довольно одноразовая и определённо лишь для любителей подобных аркад.

Adrenaline rush / top-down shmup which just gets better with a little of typing skills: you move with regular directional keys (tuned up for each popular keyboard layout) and also type TV/cinema pop quotes in order to load a death ray power up that takes down shielded enemies. For everything else, you shoot automatically. This is not one of those boring typing games because you are too concentrated trying to type while trying not to be destroyed :D I used it to train my Colemak skills and just improved to the point I fully committed to that layout. After going back to QWERTY it just helped hone my skills and regrow the lost connections. It gets a bit repetitive as every other shmup, but I keep coming for more anyways. It is very short thou. Very lazy development LOL! Loved the seizure inducing lighting effects and the top down shooter action. Devs are responsive and noticeably want to keep their product sharp. It is a pleasure to pay such a meager sum for such an entertaining piece of software. Which works perfectly on Linux (Fedora and Debian at least) out of the box.

Excellent visuals and good soundtrack, but the control scheme needs work. A game that focuses on typing should not use its typing controls as movement controls, especially when that can lead to you steering your ship into enemy fire. Upgrades would also be a nice feature to have.

WASDで弾幕を避けつつ英単語を打ち込むという斬新なシューティング。英単語の打ち込みに成功すると弾を消せるレーザーが出せますが、打ち込みに集中していると被弾してしまうというジレンマが絶妙なバランスでリプレイ中毒性が高いです。音楽とネオン系のビジュアルもかっこいいです。お値段９９円でお手軽にブラインドタッチ練習ができますね。苦手な単語はEXPECTO PATRONUMです。

Best game in the world. Simple, short, stellar graphics, AMAZING! For creator: THANK YOU FOR BEING BORN IN THIS WORLD AND CREATED THIS AMAZING GAME!!!!!
