  • Type-Help's Progress Tracker Tool: I’ve built a helper tool https://www.qidiantu.com/type-help-help.html that visually displays your current game progress—no more manual spreadsheets!
    • It automatically syncs your progress if you play on my site.
    • Alternatively, you can manually upload your save file to see your stats.


I hope these tools make your journey in TypeHelp even better. Enjoy!

[WARNING] DO NOT click outside the Autoload dialog—it will ERASE your TypeHelp save! (+ Fix)

Hi ,William,

I'm writing to report a bug I encountered in TypeHelp, along with a code fix I've implemented.

The Issue:

When returning to the game after a previous session, the "Autoload" prompt correctly appears, asking the user whether to load their auto-save or start from scratch. However, if the user accidentally clicks or taps on the background outside of the prompt dialog, the game defaults to starting from scratch. This completely erases the user's existing save data without their explicit confirmation.

The Fix:

I have modified the logic to prevent the background click from dismissing the prompt and wiping the save. Here is the updated code:

/* Manage the dialog overlay behavior to prevent accidental closing of Autoload prompt */

$(document).on(':dialogopened', function (ev) {

    var $overlay = $('#ui-overlay');

    if ($('#ui-dialog-body').hasClass('autoload')) {

        /* Autoload: prevent closing by clicking the overlay */

        $overlay.removeClass('ui-close');

    } else {

        /* Other dialogs: ensure the overlay can close the dialog (idempotent) */

        $overlay.addClass('ui-close');

    }

});

I have already deployed and tested this fix on my end. You can see it running live here:

I hope this helps improve the game! Please let me know if you need any further details.

Best regards,

Chinese Localization for "Type Help"

Hi, William,

I am writing to share that I have created a Chinese localization for your game, "Type Help". Which is located at https://www.qidiantu.com/type-help.html

I truly admire the clever and exquisite design of your game. My hope is that by providing this translation, more Chinese-speaking players will be able to experience and enjoy your wonderful work. Please let me know if it might be possible to merge this localization into the official release of the game.

Furthermore, if you ever need help with Chinese localization for any of your new or upcoming games, I would be more than happy to contribute and help out.

Thank you for your time and for creating such a fantastic game!
