The KernType: a kerning game is a typography game aimed at teaching you the concepts of kerning by letting you arrange the spacing of letters and giving you a score on the final result. Judging by my low results, it's clear I'd be a danger to the printing business.
Your mission is simple: achieve pleasant and readable text by distributing the space between letters. Typographers call this activity kerning. Your solution will be compared to typographer's solution, and you will be given a score depending on how close you nailed it. Good luck!
