Space Typer

Space Typer is the most action-packed game in the platform. Enemy fighters drop in from every direction — scouts, bombers, mother-ships — and they all fire homing missiles back at your defender ship. Every enemy and every missile carries a word over its head; type that word and it's gone.

The lock-on mechanic keeps the game readable in chaos: type the first letter of any visible word and you're committed to that target. Subsequent letters fire laser bolts from your wing cannons until the word is finished and the target detonates in a particle explosion.

Waves get bigger and faster, and every fifth level is a boss — a giant mothership with a long word and a screen-shaking explosion. Power-ups occasionally drop after kills: nukes that clear the screen, slow-mo, and shields that absorb a missile.
