Words against Numbers by Mastoast
Help Words in the battle to defeat their enemy.
This is my first submission to Ludum Dare. It was made with MonoGame. I couldn't complete every aspect of the game in time, and i'm especially sad about the lack of music, but i had to add some levels.
Enjoy the game and thanks for playing !

I happened to crash too at the last level, but i didn't manage to reproduce it so it's still a mystery for me, sorry for that. But to be honest you didn't miss anything, the endless mode is not that good. it's only 4 digit numbers at a low frequency, again and again, with a score.
As ways to practice typing go this beats the hell out of repeating "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" over and over. Nice work!
Sometimes it seemed like two digits would get hit at the same time, but I certainly won't complain about that.
Good job!
