Game Intrsuctions

The object of this typing game is to block the ball from leaving the playing field by pressing the appropriate key. The playing field consists of a square region bordered on all four sides by a series of block, each of them containing a different letter. The ball starts off in the middle of the field and then begins to shoot off towards one of the blocks. In order to stop the ball, you need to press (and hold) the right key until the ball has made contact with the block. If you do so, the screen will flash green and you will earn points for blocking the ball. If you fail to press the key in time, or are not depressing it when the ball makes contact with the block, you will lose the ball and the screen will flash red.

Each round last 1 minute. Your game will continue until you miss more than 10 balls in more than one round. If you pass the round, your score will be based on how many balls you successfully block, with a penalty incurred for making pressing more than one key per ball – making a mis-stroke.

The game gets more difficult from round to round as the balls shoot out faster and faster.

When you press a key, the corresponding block will light up green to provide visual feedback as to what you are typing.
