Two Game Modes Keep Things Interesting

Tux Typing features two different game modes for typing practice.
In Fish Cascade, juicy fish are falling from the sky. Tux, the Linux penguin mascot, is waiting below the falling food with an empty stomach. However, he can't eat the fish when they are covered with letters. Removing those indigestible letters is up to you. Successfully typing out the entire word spelled out on the fish will make the letters disappear. Fish Cascade has three levels of difficulty, guaranteeing a satisfying typing challenge for even intermediate typists.
The second minigame in Tux Typing is Comet Zap. Choose from Space Cadet, Pilot, Ace and Commander difficulties and let the shooting begin! Flaming letters rain down from space and it's up to you and Tux to destroy them all and save the day.

Customizable Word Lists

In addition to a robust selection of built-in word lists, Tux Typing also supports user generated word lists. This opens up a whole new world of potential for users of this game. Spelling words, vocabulary lists and even foreign words can easily be added to Tux Typing for increased exposure and reinforcement, making the game pull double duty as a typing tutor and study aid all in one.

Bright, Colorful Backgrounds and Exciting Sound

Most of the backgrounds in Tux Typing are bright and beautiful pictures of wide open spaces, and the game automatically changes backgrounds at regular intervals during gameplay. This reduces eyestrain and keeps the game feeling fresh even after extended typing sessions.
The sounds in the game will also help you stay focused, with appropriate discouraging beeps when mistakes are made and the sound of an enthusiastic crowd cheering when goals have been met.
