Inspiration

We suck a typing, so we decided to make a project that was relevant.

What it does

It is a game with 9 levels, each with a greater variety of letters. For example, it starts with a few letters on the "home-row", which are the easily accessible characters in the middle of the keyboard.

How we built it

We used Python and Pygame to create this project.

Challenges we ran into

There were a couple of problems that we ran into. One of the significant ones being that the game would not identify the capital letters, but that is resolved and works fine. Also, the buttons need to be clicked twice in order to proceed to the next step.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

There was a lot of perseverance throughout this project. The hardest part to fix was the game trying to identify the inputs and match if they were right. We also marked if it was correct with green, and incorrect with red, and you would not be able to pass until the correct letter is selected.

What we learned

We learned a lot of Pygame features and it connected to Python. There was a lot of string handling functions that were involved.

What's next for Touch Typer

Add a cursor, better UI, fix the buttons, more levels, better formatting.
