Game's take on the theme
Players utilize the letters that the boss throws at them. They type the letters and by doing so transform them into a "makeshift" weapon players can use against the boss. What makes the experience even more "makeshift" is the use of the shift keys to dodge incoming obstacles, which just like the letters come in waves.
