Achievement Revamp

One of the biggest friction points for CozyTyper has been achievements and the way that they work, so we want to try to bring these in line with what the community is expecting and feels right to you CozyTypers! We want to make some changes to the achievement system as we didn't initially communicate our intentions for these achievements at release, which you can read more about on our community discussions page. After a lengthy discussion regarding the 4 toughest achievements ( completing the 4 weeks without a mistake ), we thought the best thing to do would be to open up the idea of removing those 4 achievements as they feel against the general vibe of CozyTyper. To loop you into our perspective, here is what the main points of the discussion were:

  • We wanted to create a higher tier of achievement beyond just accumulating total quotes. This led us to trying to follow the spirit of the game ( accuracy over speed ) to its logical conclusion, 100% accuracy. We recognized that this would be a rare achievement indeed, but we wanted to find a way to reward someone who managed such a feat.
  • Because of the way that some people play games, those achievements were not seen as some far off goal, but one they were obligated to complete to feel they had finished the game. This is not wrong, it is just different from how we conceived it to be.
  • Currently ~70 have completed at least 1 of these achievements, that is ~1% of players.
  • If there were a way to convert achievements to legacy achievements similarly to the feat of strength system in World of Warcraft, or to exclude specific achievements from the 100% completion requirement similarly to PlayStation's Platinum system, then this would be a no brainer!
  • Sadly our only other option is to outright remove them, which would allow those who have already 100% the game to keep that, despite losing the 4 perfection achievements. We really dislike that people will not be able to retain credit, and we are trying to weigh that against the frustration that these achievements are causing people.
  • We are in a position where either decision will impose on people, and are struggling to find the best option.
To help us come to an answer, we would really appreciate your opinions on the matter. We have a public poll active on our Patreon (which you do not need to be a patron to see/vote) below, and you can feel free to leave comments here if that is your preference!

Overview

CozyTyper is a new take on the typing game genre. By focusing on accuracy above all else, CozyTyper removes the pressure of a ticking clock and lets you focus on learning the muscle memory, through which you will naturally gain speed!

In order to simulate the most natural typing experience, in CozyTyper you type out full quotes sourced from games, movies, novels, famous speeches and more. As you progress through the difficulties, the quotes get longer and more technical to push your touch typing to the next level!

Story Mode

Anita has been an enthusiast typist ever since she received her first IBM Selectric back it ’67. Now that she has retired, she worked with her grandson to help bring her teaching technique to anyone willing to learn. Enroll in her course to and watch your stats improve! She sends you progress reports along the way so you can see your improvement in real-time. As you progress through the story, at the end of each in-game day, all of your successfully completed quotes will be unlocked for endless play in the Freeplay game mode. At the end of each in-game week you will also unlock bonus quotes at that level.

Freeplay

Freeplay mode allows you to practice quotes without the structure of the course, while still recording and updating your stats. You can have freeplay select between any of your unlocked quotes, or you can have it only select a specific difficulty from the settings menu.

Stats

In this page you can find graphs displaying the accuracy and words per minute of your latest quotes, as well as your daily progress reports from story mode.

Customize Your Experience

Cozytyper comes with 3 different typing cursors, and 3 different typing modes. You can use either of the two color presets, of choose your own colors, to adjust the text highlighting to what works best for you!

Who Are We?

We have refined this game after a great deal of tester feedback, and look forward to continuing that work to make CozyTyper the best it can be. Thanks for taking the time to consider our game, and we hope you love it as much as we do!
