Typing - Team-Hamsa/calebhamsa.fun GitHub Wiki
The โจ๏ธ Typing game teaches where the keys are on a real keyboard (a keyboard on the iPad, or a computer). Letter blocks make a wall. Press the key for the glowing block and it breaks!
- The glowing block is the one to break. Its letter is said out loud.
- The keyboard picture lights up the same key, in the color of the finger to press it with. F and J have little bumps, just like on a real keyboard: rest your pointer fingers there.
- The hands show which finger to use: it lifts up and glows.
- A wrong key makes the block wobble, and the key you pressed flashes gray so you can see where your finger was. Try again: there's no timer and no losing.
- Clear the wall to earn a โญ. Three โญ finish a level and open the next one. You can tap any open level at the top to play it again.
- ๐ / ๐ at the top turns all the sounds and the talking off (and back on). The game remembers it, and it works on the start screen too.
