Kaiten Ushi

Typing game with a little bit of pachinko-style gameplay.

This is a re-upload of Kaiten Ushi, with a link that (hopefully) works without being blocked.

Students type the words that appear on the screen. After they have typed all of them, and collected lives, they get to drop the cow and let him eat as much as he can!

Get the cow full, and win the level!

As always, please let me know what you think and how you think the games could be improved.

    Thank you so much!! It works on tablet and desktop at my school.
    One suggestion would be to make the "ending" of the game a bit more flashy. It feels anti-climactic to finish all the levels and the game essentially just ends without much fanfare.

    I'll flash it up πŸ˜πŸ‘

    The game looks great, but there is a problem with light blue. When I use the tablet and try to type it in pressing the space bar makes the game bounce instead of typing the space between light and blue. Is there a work around?

    @zdahlgren
    I changed all the vocabulary to be single words instead of needing to press the space bar. I hope that helps.

    I have not tried the game on a tablet, since I only have access to a PC, so I don't know how the actual game will work, unfortunately, but I hope it does :D

    This is a good game. Are you able to add a timer for like student competitive play. That if they dont type fast/correct they wont get enough lives. Also is this purely just vocab learning?

    This is a really good game. I tried playing it but the cow gets stuck in the score dividers and won't budge. If I restart, it won't let me drop the cow anymore :(

    My kids would love to play this game on their tablets. But trialing it out on my own tablet first I’m not getting a keyboard come up so I can type in my answers. Does anyone have a solution to this?

    Great game! Came up on a few things during my class that I thought you might want to know for future reference.
    1) When the reload button is used during the food/point part, the cow would return to cursor but unable to drop. Forcing students to go back to map and re-do the level.
    2) Sometimes the cow would get stuck in-between points at the bottom or in-between the levers. Perhaps adding a tilt button on the side?

    3) Upon level completion, before returning back to map, some students found they could still drop cows and get food/points.
    4) This only happened to twice but on the second level, no matter how much food/points they got, they couldn't advance to the next level. Tried reloading game/browser but same results. Might be just their specific chrome book as everyone else was fine.

    Either way, great game! I've been checking out all your other games and my students are having a blast. Thanks for these!

    This is a very nice typing game. I really appreciate it! I hope at the end of the game, there is a ranking of all the scores so that the students get more excited and the top players get a reward. :)
