Typer Shark (Original)

The original Typer Shark was a browser game that used to be available from PopCap's website, at http://www.popcap.com/games/free/typershark. Unfortunately, the game was taken down, and is now unavailable. The game was up on Pop Cap's website from at least 2002 until at least 2009

The general premise of the game was the same, the player controlled a Diver and dove underwater, blasting sharks by typing out their names, however, there were some notable differences, with many visible graphical changes being made during the development of Typer Shark! Deluxe

Differences

 * Instead of a sign showing the number of lives a player had left, there were images of the diver helmet, with one helmet for however many lives were left.
 * The game's HUD was different: Instead of the shark zapper taking up the left side of the bottom GUI bar, followed by the pause, options, and quit buttons, Typer Shark's bottom GUI bar consisted of a pause button to the far left, then a mute/unmute button, the shark zapper, and then "new game" button
 * Instead of the Adventure, Abyss, Typing Tutor, Hall of Fame, Options, and "Quit Game" buttons of Typer Shark! Deluxe, Typer Shark's menu only gave the player difficulty options and an "Instructions" button. Easy was 20 WPM, Normal 30 WPM, Hard 50 WPM, Expert 70 WPM, and "X-TREME!" "??? WPM"
 * Stealth enemies actually hid their words/letters completely, meaning you could not see them at all until they exited stealth mode, making them much more of a threat.
 * The game featured different enemies.
