About: Cognizance is a horizontal shooter game that combines a traditional shooter with puzzle and RPG elements. In the first phase, you build up your stats by killing enemies. In the next phase, blast the enemies that have misspelled words! Be careful though, killing an enemy with a correctly spelled word will cause it to counterattack! At the end there is a boss: you can stand elemental tiles for extra attacks.

Seems like a pretty fun game, but I can't be sure of that yet. On my screen the text is way too small to see when the monsters are moving, so I really can't play that part of the game :(. Some bigger text would really help. Give it that and I will definetly give it a more serious try.

Yeah, there have some complaints about the text size being too small in the 2nd phase, and I have now updated it with larger text. You can also enter fullscreen mode by pressing Alt+Enter if that helps.
