Its a bit annoying that the input locks when you've been hit. You keep typing and even though you spell it correctly you're later in the word so its marked as wrong.

I guess that edges it a bit closer to a fighting game than 'just' a typing game, in that you want to exploit and opening and not just mash attacks. ;)

But it also seems to disadvantage the 'easy' characters with short words a lot more since they have to wait for a new word a lot more often, giving the opponent more time to start locking your input again.

I might be overthinking this. ;)

I have never commented on a single HN story, and mostly stick to reading. I wanted to say that this is one of the absolute funniest comments I have ever read on this web site. Good job, sir.

Buffering input commands? This is a deeper fighting engine than I would've assumed!

Finally, a fighting game that doesn't suck using a keyboard. Would be great if there was a way to crossup and knockdown.
