So, apparently no one else did a Typing Game with Gamemaker yet :p
It was pretty funny to do a typing game engine. I put way more work into this than you might expect.
Believe it or not, 500+ hours went into the current state.

AT A TIME WHEN MUCH OF THE WORLD REMAINED UNDISCOVERED FROM OTHER CIVILIZATIONS THERE WAS A SMALL ISLAND CALLED FAIR....

Typing with Jester is a typing game with a 8-Bit Retro fourscale style. Imagine those classic handhelds had a keyboard and a game like this. Sounds awesome right?

WHAT ARE THE GAMES PLANNED FEATURES?

Currently approved are:
  • A story about clowns
  • 10 story levels with unique boss encounters
  • 1 super secret bonus stage - this proves its existance!
  • endless mode with highscore
  • Tutor mode (learn how to type)
  • 2 playable characters, a female and a male jester
  • unlockable characters for endless mode
  • ~ 3000 words per supported language
  • Steam Achievements
  • Steam Trading Cards
  • Steam Cloud
  • Steam Workshop for own dictionarys (deactivates highscore)
  • SWAG

That's my outdated trailer:


That's my outdated store page:

And thats the roadmap:

So because of the very early version the game is not for sale yet...
I dont know how i made it through greenlight, maybe the groupees bundle help on that...
Well how did i make it into that bundle anyway?
Questions over questions...

Feedback much appreciated.

Looks GameBoy-ish. Is there a playable demo? I would like to give you some honest feedback to provide some help with the development! :)

Keep up the great work!
