Spell Runner is a typing game in the style of late-80s console games.

Pip runs through Quill Meadows on his own. Every creature and object that comes at him carries a word: type it to clear it. Space jumps the gaps, Enter ducks under branches, and at the end of the level the Baron is waiting.

  • Three difficulties, each with its own words: Easy (home row, 10–20 WPM), Medium (everyday words, 20–40 WPM) and Hard (long, unusual words, 40+ WPM)
  • Power-ups, extra lives and checkpoints
  • WPM, accuracy and the keys to practise after every run
  • World scores for each difficulty

One level so far, about five minutes. It needs a physical keyboard.

Feedback is welcome in the comments, especially on difficulty and on what you'd like added.
