jTypingHero – Test your typing skills in this jQuery game

Quickly after jCharacterfall, I came up with this game. It looks a bit like jCharacterfall, but is mainly inspired on and JamLegend, RockBand and (obviously) Guitar Hero. But, instead of tapping to beats, you’ll have to press the correct character on the correct time in a totally random order. Each correct press will make the game faster, which makes it harder but you’ll be able to earn more points.

Just like in the previous game, this one can be pretty fun and addictive, but it might help you improve your typing skills too.

Little disclaimer: If you find this game too easy, I suggest you download the source and change the JavaScript file, changing some values placed on top (like DROPPINGSPEED and NEWORBTIME). This will increase the amount of multiple dropping orbs and will also speed up, but that also means your browser will take a lot away from your CPU.

Once again this is just a simple Proof of Concept showing the amazing power of jQuery (combined with some CSS3).

Just like with jCharacterfall, I’m inviting you to poke around in the source to see where you can make some improvements. What highscore can you get in this game?

The highest score I managed to get is 138 (and 20 misses). I got lucky on the bonus orbs.
