This was a fresh experience for me and it reminded me of Bookworm games in a way so much! Loved the worldplay being done and I also loved the fact that there was a skip tutorial option in there. I did get confused on how the scoring works but overall I was more interested in getting as many words and seeing the animations play out and all the different audio  cues too were so fun to make me be in the game experience! My only concern was the text area where to type coz there is no cursor indicator which generally screws up my awareness sometimes - also when missing a word that hits the wall - needing to go backspace on the word I was typing could maybe be updated to clear out? But then from a more brutal experience that is also very fun and makes me want to not make mistakes and be extreemely careful yet fast. Unsure if it was that the game was heavy  in some way but it took me time to type one letter at a time when I was trying to type fast I had to slow down on purpose so that the game registered my input (probably the lag time for the web app taking in the input)? Unless this was intentional then all the more adding to the fun of the game in a different way but could get annoying on repeat playthroughs maybe? 

Loved the idea and giving me back that nostalgia of Bookworm for me personally - havent played word based games in a whilewith  speed being the focus. Also the words being written with cultural context is freaking brilliant as if I am not used to the word written in a particular manner (because of personal learning bias) it adds more to enjoying the game for me! As I have to be carefully reading it instead of assuming the letters which was a lot of fun! :D

thank you very much for playing our game! also, i'm glad you liked some of the more creative spellings we added! some of the words you need to defend against are intentionally misspelled (inspired by potoooooooo, the name of a race horse that some stableboy allegedly misspelled), and some of the words are backwards (the cowboy's model and voice clips are also reversed!). this is to intentionally trip you up; and it all depends on the type of cowboy you're trying to buck off, each cowboy has its own word bank! :D
