LexiCore

LexiCore is a fast-paced typing defense game built with C++ and SFML 3.

Circles carrying words spawn from all sides of the screen and move toward your heart. Type the words correctly to destroy them before they hit. Each wave gets harder — spawn rate increases, words get longer and more complex. Every 5th wave is a special milestone: faster and more challenging, but completing it fully heals your heart and saves your progress as a checkpoint.
