"The morning type" is quite possibly the worst pun I have ever made. Ever.
In the game, you type. And it is morning. The game is intended to help with two things: Increasing your vocabulary and / or help you practice typing quickly. So it falls into the educational genre.
During development, I had a massive set-back which basically required me to re-do a whole bunch of work (Remember to save your scene and project often, Lime!) so audio didn't make it in, unfortunately. And I know audio would add a lot... I actually did record some of it, however didn't manage to actually add it into the game.
Now let me acknowledge that it basically has nothing to do with the theme. My original idea did... then again, my original idea also featured a character, viewed in third person. So yeah, the "unconventional weapon" side of it faded away during development. While I acknowledge this, I think it's still fair to let you express your displeasure at this fact by letting you vote in the "theme" category, so that you hopefully don't penalize the game in the other categories for its extremely liberal interpretation of the theme. Thanks!
All feedback is welcome, especially written comments! If you would like me to look at your game, leave a comment and I will! :D
Addendum:
* You can press space and enter if you wish, however it is not required. You will not fail words if you press either of those, nor will you get extra points.
