    Nice idea! I enjoyed playing it, got to wave 37.

    Some feedback:

    - There is no information on how to use activated abilities. Took me awhile before I figured out you had to type them out.

    - Enemies that approach from the top cannot be attacked right away, even though they are visible.

    - Some enemies can be attacked while outside the screen which causes you to have to wait until they enter to know what word to type. This can be fatal if there are a lot of other enemies close and feels a bit unfair. One approach could be to always show the focused word in the middle, similar to when using abilities.

    - The orange enemies seem unaffected by the chain attack ability.
