Tux Typing was featured in the January 2001 issue of "Linux Magazine" (Japan, published by ASCII).

It also was given four penguins on Tucows.

(Last I checked) it had four stars on The Linux Game Tome.

Notes from Gamers

From Jim Doyle, on Sun 10 Dec 2000,

Hi,
I just wanted to thank you for writing TuxTyping. It's exactly what I was hoping to find, and my six-year-old daughter loves it! Thanks!

Dear Sam
Thanks for creating Tuxtype! I work in an elementary school, and plan to begin using Tuxtype with the students this week. So far, I have seven [computers] running Tuxtype. The kids who have tried it love it.
...
Today, the kids came in screaming to use Tuxtype! They really love it. Some have discovered that the pause function lets them find the next letter ... a short cut cheat! :-)
