About the Game
The forces of Evil are swarming in a seemingly infinite cemetery. After several days of trekking, you finally arrive on the scene. Your will is foolproof. You will purify this noxious place or die there.
Type Knight is a short atmospheric typing game. Type as fast as you can to survive. Discover what lies at the end of the cemetery at the cost of your life.
Dynamic Weather:
During the game, fog, wind, rain and lightning will form naturally.
Original Soundtrack:
Treat your ears to six songs composed specifically for the game.
Custom games:
Import, save and play with your own text! Restrict the characters you don't want to appear with the help of a virtual keyboard. Choose between the classic game mode or the "text flow" mode, where an infinite horde of skeletons reveals itself in the order of your custom text.

Hello friends,
Here's a small patch to address a bug related to non-16:9 monitors.
Changelog from 1.3.0 (2022-03-19) to 1.3.1 (2023-12-05):
- Fixed UI issue when fullscreen on non 16:9 monitors
- Fixed bad paragraph spacing
- Updated readme
If you have any problems with the settings, you can always tweak them from outside the game with the config file. It's located in "Appdata/Local/TypeKnight".
Have a nice rest of the year!
Hey! I've just finished working on a new patch for Type Knight. I couldn't recreate on my end a lot of the bugs that have been reported but I still did my best to investigate the game's code to fix most of them. Please let me know if the patch feels like an improvement or not!
Changelog from 1.1.1 (2020-01-08) to 1.1.2 (2020-06-01).
- Fixed the unhinged dynamic difficuly for the script flow game mode. The longer you had the game open, the faster the skeletons were walking because the game didn't take into account the time you started the new round.
- Potential fix for the game over screen sometimes not fading in.
- Potential fixes for crashes related to weather effects (objPluie, objBrouillard and so on).
- Standardized how the words appear above the sorcerer. The words should behave like for other enemies (graying out instead of disappearing). It should also make the system less prone to bugs. (Some of you had a problem where a new word would fail to appear.)
- Removed some offensive and vulgar words from the dictionnaries.
- Updated the readme.
Hello! Here's a small patch for Type Knight. I tried my best to fix the crash related to "objEntites" that's been reported multiple times, however I couldn't recreate the issue on my end. I've made a small change that I think should fix the issue but there's no way for me to know for sure. Let me know if it still happens.
Changelog from 1.1.0 (2019-12-19) to 1.1.1 (2020-01-08).
- Possible fix for the crash related to "objEntites"
- Fixed not always being able to hear the attack sound effect of skeletons
- Removed crickets from the background audio during winter mode
- Updated the alternate version of the mountain sprite used for the lightning strike special effect to the newest version of mountains (you will see the change after winter mode ends)
- Tweaked the game over screen during winter mode
Hello! Here's the first patch for Type Knight.
If you experience any bugs or crashes or see obscene words, please report them to me! Video footage of the game when you're triggering a bug/crash is especially useful if you want it to get fixed quickly.
Changelog from 1.0.0.0 (2019-10-25) to 1.0.0.1 (2019-11-03).
- Added new sound effects to the player text
- Sound cue when the word appears above the knight
- Ticking sound with each character typed by the enemy
- Updated the dictionaries to remove obscene and undesirable words
- Added a fail-safe that should prevent the post-boss particle crash (if it still happens let me know)
- Fixed the ghost soft-lock
- Prevented the enemies to have a word that contain your power-attack word and vice-versa
- Added an error message in case you would try to pick a word that would leave none for the enemies to use (practically impossible unless you're trying to break the game on purpose in a custom game)
- Updated credits
- Updated readme
- Removed proper nouns from french dictionary
