About Typing...
Typing... is a good follow-up when you want the chat-interface dread of Killer Chat without a long route commitment. The page source describes it as a short choose-what-you-say adventure in an IRC conversation.
The itch.io page for Typing... says the game takes place entirely in an IRC conversation between two friends and recommends Chrome or Firefox for the WebGL version.
itch.io lists the game as released for HTML5 and Windows, made with Unity, with interactive fiction as its genre and horror, supernatural and text-based tags.
The source page also warns that the ending behavior is intentional. That is useful for players because the game uses its own technical presentation as part of the scare.
Typing... features
- IRC conversation format from start to finish.
