X-TuxType1.8.1 [rev6]

X-TuxType is an educational and entertaining program that comes bundled with a broad collection of words that are used in fun typing games, where each correctly written item awards the penguin at the bottom with fishes. It also features several lessons that can improve the typing and attention skills.

The advantages of being a portable app

As the utility comes packed with all the necessary elements into an archive and doesn’t require a setup to work, it can be dropped on a thumb disk, and launched from any location. In addition, it doesn’t take much space on the drive, nor leaves traces after it’s been deleted.It’s wrapped in a kids-friendly interface with a simple menu and full-screen mode. The background music accompanies you while you discover each offered option. The layout language can be easily changed from the options. The games and lessons are neatly divided into separate menus.

Customize the categories with terms and phrases

If you want to enter new words to the database, you can do that from the Options menu, where several default categories are shown, like alphabet, animals, astronomy, fruit or numbers. Every group may be filled with custom words or phrases. It’s best to start with the lessons if you’re not a good taper?? to improve your speed, as well as test the correlation between your eyes and fingers, and the distributive attention.

Catch fishes and destroy falling comets by typing the words right

The app comes with two distinct games, fish cascade, and comet zap. The purpose of the first game is to  write the displayed terms as fast as you can until the number of eaten fishes reaches zero. Then the next level is brought up. The second one operates on the same principles, only here, each correct letter is zapped by a laser. You don’t have to worry about the fishes, as the penguin automatically runs after them.
