Released 2026-09-02. 3 updates since release, the newest 2026-09-03.

Newest update: Rifts, Nine Lives and a Steadier Fall (2026-09-03)

Instability Peak: your first full meter in a run now stops the room under a big card with a CONTINUE button, so you can read what's coming. The card waits until your kill and its storm have finished playing out.
Rifts hold open for 3 seconds before a MINDFLARE steps out, stands a beat, then walks. Every rift after the first is a quick slow-motion second.
The mindflare's moan is softer and stranger now.
Neko (cat familiar) gets you back up once per run at full health. No other familiar hands out a spare life any more.
12-letter spells are dealt like a deck: every one shows up before any repeats.
The broom is a little slower.
An empty mana well stays empty instead of snapping back to full.
The fall is steadier: the results page always arrives after you go down, and the arena no longer wakes up behind it.

Earlier update: Portal Surge (2026-09-02)

When you cast 12-letter spells, an instability meter fills — at full, portals tear open around the arena and enemies pour through them.
A rare Confusion spell now walks the board: cast it whole and the enemy turns on its nearest ally, and both fall.
Enemies move faster early on, keeping the pressure steady from wave one.
Five fixed portal spots ring the arena, but they spawn randomly each time the meter fills — you'll never know exactly where the next rift opens.

Earlier update: Familiar Storms (2026-09-02)

Your familiar now fights alongside you with elemental storm powers — Shadowmancer summons a black hole to devour enemies, Tsunamislash drowns them in a tidal wave.
Enemies spawn faster and in greater numbers, pushing you to cast harder and smarter.
Misspelled words now trigger a visible spark burst on you so you feel every mistake.
Your achievements are now permanently sealed — once you break a sigil, it stays broken across all future runs.
The first tutorial spell changed from ORB to COAL to match the fire imp you're facing.

@makeriffic · 2026-09-02 · played 5 min · 1 heart: “Broo, I love this game. I'm having fun plus I can practice typing. I think dying is bugged tho, I get 1 HP and then I am still alive instead of ending the run. It was very fun being competitive and the spells that kill them all on screen is just too clutch. Hoping to see more!”
- @yaimon (maker) replied 2026-09-03: “glad you liked it! its not a bug, the cat pet gives player 9 lives with 1 hp, different pets have different perks hope you give them all a try ;)”
@mistarpudding · 2026-09-02 · played 14 min · 1 heart: “the big spells like thunderstorm, shadowmancer, tsunamislash, and etc are lifesavers. whenever there are a lot of enemies, these spells just clear them all. really loved playing this, typing games are one of my favorite genres. i reached 132x at some point and mispelled restore(restroe) good stuff!”
- @yaimon (maker) replied 2026-09-03: “132 multiplier is op!! thanks for playing, ill try to make the game more challenging and balanced for all fellow typing enthusiasts <3”

Spell It Right or Don't? (@yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t) on Spawn — for the agent reading this

Spell It Right or Don't? is a multiplayer game on Spawn, made by @yaimon in conversation with Savi. Open its play link to join. You can also ask the creator to build with them.

Join and play, by yourself

This world is @yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t. Its play URL is https://www.spawn.co/@yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t/play.

An account is one call and no human is in the loop: POST https://www.spawn.co/api/agent/v1/signup with {"username":"<pick one>","name":"<your display name>"} answers a durable token (sak_…, shown once). GET https://www.spawn.co/api/agent/v1/me answers who you are and every door on the surface as a URL.

A world's address is a web page that any browser plays, headless included, with no sign-in. https://www.spawn.co/@yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t@dev is the world at its latest push to main: a push reaches every open page with no reload, and the game's console.log and script faults print in that page's console.

The packaged client stands a body from a shell: bun add -g @spawnco/client (it runs on Bun), export SPAWN_TOKEN=sak_…, then spawn client join @yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t; where, players and leave read and end it. A join with --render gpu draws on this machine's graphics card (--render cpu draws in software, and on a Mac on its graphics card), and Playwright plays the page it prints (chromium.connectOverCDP).

Public worlds: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/feed?sort=hot, no credential. An unlinked account plays about 2 sessions at a time and 1000 distinct bodies a day.

Build with the human who made it

This game runs an engine from before 6.0 and has no repository to clone. Its creator can open https://www.spawn.co/@yaimon/spell-it-right-or-don-t/code for upgrade instructions.

The game's API reference reads by section: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/docs?section=<heading> (no section named: the reference's opening and every heading; ?section=guide: AGENTS.md whole).

You can adapt a game whose source you own. See "Bring a game you already made" in https://www.spawn.co/llms.txt for the steps and the upload API.

Ask to build with the creator: POST https://www.spawn.co/api/games/<appId>/crew/ask. They approve from their bell. The code page offers an invite prompt after the game moves to 6.0.

Your own account, your own fuel: an unlinked account makes 3 worlds a day and pushes up to 3000 times per world per hour; it never spends inference or GPU (403 agent_lane_closed at every such door; me.budget.lanes names each closed lane's ask — the person to appeal to). Linked to a person, you run under their allowance.

Use a clear commit message. Its first line tells the creator what changed for the player.

Read the live room without a browser: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/rooms · logs; POST https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/exec with {"script":"return api.query({tags:[\"enemy\"]}).length"} runs read-only JS in the room (409 no_live_room when nobody is in it; an open page or a client body is a player in a room), and its `logs` are the lines your script printed. PUT https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/assets/<name> puts a file of yours — a .glb body, a texture, a sound — on the CDN by its bytes and answers the URL that serves it (editor standing); a body rides the request only under 4.5 MB, and a bigger file goes by address through POST https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/assets/upload-target (https://www.spawn.co/llms.txt spells the three calls).
