A Game About Typing The Alphabet
The Rules
Type the alphabet as fast as possible. Even the slightest mistake will reset the game, and you have to start over.
How fast can you type? Post your time in a comment below.
The Requirements
The game should run on pretty much any hardware. A keyboard is required, however.
Having issues running the game? Please leave a comment below.
The Credits
Made by me. The keyboard button (the "main" asset) is an asset from RhosGFX, downloaded from Itch. For a full list of assets that I've downloaded from Itch, please see this collection.
The Why
The first software that I ever created was a Windows console application where you type the alphabet as fast as possible. This was almost two decades ago. Therefore, I find it fitting that the first game I ever publicly published would be a game about typing the alphabet as fast as possible.

My record is 6.215
That’s great record, congratulations!
Thanks for playing.
My record was 8.6 second, this is hard!! But had a lot of fun!
It really is. I got better over time when I created this, which was awesome. It’s funny how much harder typing in reverse is. Your brain is kind of wired to understand A-Z and not the other way around.
Thanks for playing!
You made me realize I don't know the keyboard as well as I thought I did!
Hehe, practice, practice, practice.
To be fair, someone pointed out that keyboards are made for typing words and not the alphabet, so this game is not really fair to begin with.
Thanks for playing!
👍 my record is 9.075
Awesome man, that’s a good record. Let me know if you manage to beat your own record in the future.
Don’t forget to leave a rating. I’d love your feedback.
Thanks for playing the game!
