Howdy,

So Jiggmin and I are releasing another game from our collabo-month back in January. We never found a buyer for this game but we're still pretty proud of it. So we said screw it, we'll just put it up on our own sites and see what happens with ad rev and whatnot.

It's a typing game where you control a taxi from the backseat with your words! We were going to submit it to the Poppenkast compo but no dice since we were hoping to find a sponsor for the game at the time. Here we are 6 months later... Anyway, it's pretty much film noir, and also pretty challenging if you don't type 90 WPM. that's probably why it didn't sell too well. I hear most sponsors only type 3 WPM and that's with a dialing wand!

This has a really great aesthetic going, though 90WPM is twice what it should be if you wanted to reach a decent audience size

[Cheater‽]

This is great.

90 WPM was hyperbole, you might have to type 90 WPM towards the very end to win the game on hard difficulty. You can change to easy though if you're having trouble.

90 WPM!?  This game will be like Guitar Hero on expert. My poor fingers!

Beat this little sucker on the most mediocre of difficulties. If I typed any faster I'd be redder than a tomato after a day at the beach, you dig?
My fingers' smokin' and that ain't 'cause I been scrathin' my head real hard. 

Haha, I can't write film noir style, don't know how you guys did it.  :D
Great game, the writing is impeccable!
