TYPER SHARK DELUXE
Introduction
Typer Shark Deluxe is a typing tutor unlike any you've ever seen before! Dive deep into the ocean depths with only your keyboard for protection... and zap menacing Word Sharks by typing the words printed on their sides. Discover sunken treasure, or test your skills to the max in the Abyss!
Typer Shark features three ways to play: you can choose your path by progressing through the Adventure mode, play a fast arcade game in the Abyss, or improve your typing skills with the Typing Tutor mode.
Creating a Profile
If it's your first time playing, you'll be asked to create a profile with your name. This is used to identify you in case there are multiple people playing on the same machine: each can have separate saved games and statistics. If you need to create a new profile later, just click on the link that says, "Click here if this is not you." This will let you pick a different profile or create a new one.
Game Selection
Once the game has finished loading, you will find yourself on the Game Selector screen. If it is the first time you've launched Typer Shark, you'll be prompted to take a typing test to determine your current typing speed. This will let the program recommend an appropriate skill level for you to play at.
From this screen, you can select one of the three game modes: Adventure, Abyss, and Tutorial, or access your Statistics. You can also change Game Options or Quit back to Windows.
Game Modes
If you select Adventure mode, your recommended difficulty level will be highlighted if you've taken the typing test. This is the level you should probably start at to get a solid challenge.
If you pick Abyss mode, you will start either at the surface, or at any of the 400-foot markers you placed while previously playing Abyss. This allows you to start at a deeper depth once you've proven your skills.
If you pick the Typing Tutor, you will go to the Tutorial screen, where you can improve your skills with one of 18 typing lessons. You can also retake the typing test at any time to see your current words per minute.
Options
The Options are accessible by clicking the Options button while playing the game. They include:
Music Volume and Sound Effects: you can adjust these volume sliders separately to fit your preferences. Fullscreen: If this is checked, Typer Shark Deluxe will use your entire computer screen. If it is not checked, Typer Shark Deluxe will be played in a window. It’s up to you to decide which you prefer. Enable Fx: If this is checked, Typer Shark Deluxe will show additional graphical effects. This may slow down the game on some computers. Custom Cursors: If this box is checked, you will see special custom Typer Shark Deluxe cursors in the game rather than Windows standard cursors. If you have a special theme installed that changes your Windows cursors, you may need to activate this option to see the cursor properly in the game. Space Bar Pauses Game: If you enable this option, pressing the Space Bar will pause any game. This is off by default. Hardware Acceleration: This box can be checked to improve performance for computers with supported video cards.
System Requirements
OS: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP Memory: 128 MB RAM Processor: 500 MHz or faster DirectX: 7.0 Internet: Internet connection is required to register both the download and CD-ROM versions of the game
