Build Typing Game with Javascript
In this tutorial we will build a speed typing game!
This is a nice game to play to improve typing speed and learn touch typing.
I try to go in detail with everything so this project should be easy even for beginners. You will learn many useful things like key detection, moving objects on the screen and many others.
