Pretty cool, but there's a lot of lag when typing fast. I keep typing from memory, but I don't see typos in real time. Got up to 150 WPM and the text didn't scroll fast enough to see what to type next. I'm guessing the lag comes from the networking part, is there any chance you could provide a single-player version, or fix the lag on the multiplayer one?


I've been checking the server logs, and it claims to always reply within a few milliseconds. It might just be lag somewhere between the server and the users' browsers. Seems to be mostly ok for me and then suddenly go super creep mode for a few seconds.

Due to the nature of LiveView, I don't think I can eliminate the lag entirely, sorry. It's not just the other players, your own stuff goes to the server and back every keystroke too.
