What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to balance the combat and reward systems, and prioritize the addition of frequently requested content, based on player feedback. We believe that actual player feedback can reveal playstyles and balance issues that our development team might not notice on our own.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Early Access to last up to approximately six months. Through several update cycles, we plan to refine balance and expand content based on player feedback before moving to the full release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“In the full version, we plan to further expand the game experience through the following:
Content Expansion
- New cards and items with unique abilities
- New starter decks built around fresh concepts
- Additional maps

Extended Gameplay
- New difficulty levels for the high-difficulty mode unlocked after clearing the game-
- A collection/encyclopedia feature to track unlocked content

We plan to adjust priorities and details based on the feedback we receive during Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay loop is fully implemented, including starting a run, playing through stages, and receiving performance-based evaluations and rewards. All features and content described in the “About This Game” section above are already implemented in the current Early Access version. The game currently offers over 10 weeks of continuous play.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will remain the same throughout Early Access. We plan to raise the price when we move to the full release. We aim to reward players who support us early by keeping the price lower during this period.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Our official Discord server will serve as the main hub for our community, where we'll regularly share development progress updates and gather player feedback and suggestions. In addition, we'll post daily development updates on X (formerly Twitter) to maintain two-way communication with our players.”

About This Game

The Fusion of Typing and Tower Defense

"Type Ride" is a typing-based tower defense game where you battle by typing to summon monsters from your custom-built deck.

Command your summoned monsters to defeat the encroaching Ink Monsters and push forward to destroy the enemy base.

Change the Tide of Battle with "Overlay"

  • In addition to Monster Cartridges, there are Overlay Cartridges used to enhance your summoned monsters.

  • These cartridges grant additional abilities or boost stats—the more you Overlay, the stronger your monsters become!

Deckbuilding Mechanics: Fight with the Cards You Find

  • After every battle, you can choose new cartridges to add to your deck.

  • Combine over 50 types of cartridges with unique abilities to build a highly synergistic deck.

  • Utilize helpful items and powerful ultimate moves—triggered under specific conditions—to gain the upper hand in combat.

Story

A rogue, state-of-the-art printer has plunged the world into chaos, leaving it overrun by Ink Monsters.
To save the world, the protagonist—once renowned as the world's greatest typist—receives an urgent request along with a typewriter-style summoning device. Accepting the mission, she decides to hop onto her beloved motorcycle once again.
Seeing her dash onto the scene and defeat monsters with her rapid typing, the people began to call her the "Type Rider."
Defeat the boss at the deepest depths of the map and save the world!
