Evaluation

Typefighters (Steam Edition) launched on April 18, 2016 as a self-contained competitive typing game. The store description presents a fixed feature set — 8 game modes, online/LAN multiplayer, singleplayer, achievements, leaderboards, and trading cards — with no mention of planned updates, expansions, or future content. There are no DLC listings, no roadmaps, and no developer news posts of any development relevance across the 2 posts scanned. The developer has made no communications about additional content, and the game shows no post-launch update pattern whatsoever. This is consistent with a game that launched as a finished, self-contained product and has remained that way.

About this game

Typefighters is a competitive multiplayer game where two players battle each other using their typing skills. Its variety of modes does not only emphasise typing speed and correctness, but also other skills like reaction time, sustained attention, creativity, tactics and anticipating the opponents moves. Aside from being a tool to settle arguments on who is the best on a keyboard, the game can also be used for training purposes.

Features:

  • Show your friends who is the fastest typist!
  • 8 modes requiring a variety of skills aside from typing speed and correctness
  • Online and LAN multiplayer for two players
  • Add your own word lists for additional languages and special challenges
  • Adjustable singleplayer opponent
  • Customizable color scheme
  • Additional benefit of providing typing practice

Additional features of the Steam Edition:

  • Matchmaking (but please note that the playerbase is pretty small at the moment)
  • Achievements
  • Leaderboards
  • Trading Cards

In regards to Multiplayer, the Steam version is fully compatible with the free version. As the serverlist is a Steam exclusive feature however, the other player needs your IP address to connect directly.
