[TYPECAST] 30+ Million Point Run
16This was a pretty interesting combination of genres, a mouse-movement typing game in which its sometimes advantageous to intentionally typo. If you type a letter that matches an enemy in your circle, you shoot at it, but if you type a letter that isn't there, you get a brief window to melee enemies or projectiles before you "jam" for hitting the wrong letter. I played it more as a mouse avoidance game than anything, trying to collect big groups of red enemies to then get massive combo when finally killing them all, as there's a cap on how many enemies can be on screen simultaneously this can actually be used to your advantage to suppress more dangerous spawns. Though it looks kinda like a vampire survivor-like, it's really nothing like it, as there's no in game or meta progression, it's just your typing and avoidance skills against swarms of letters.
All the difficulty options are fully configurable, but they all affect your scoring multiplier and I'd recommend something like this for scoring runs, as less HP just gets you killed but other powers aren't super necessary. Extra fast spawns are great for score, but I'd turn it down if just focusing on survival.
This was for achievement:
"Brewster's Millions" - Score at least 30 million points in a single run.
