Very cool collection of mini games. The third one with the ship is just way too hard for me haha. But then again I'm a hunt and pecker kind of typer.

Well done.

I like it! The art style is fantastic!
Sometimes it didn't register a letter no matter how many times i clicked it.

iossif 2015-08-24 13:17

@linus: there is a built in spam protection. maybe that did prevent the button. i will see if it needs to be less strict.

lucaredwood 2015-08-24 13:31

Cute! I too think the reduced palette works well and binds everything together nicely

zzcalvinzz 2015-08-24 13:42

Great work! I really enjoyed playing this.

ccglp 2015-08-24 13:48

Well done. I think that this can be a nice rhytm game

That scream! Nice little mini game collection with pretty good graphics. I liked it.

iossif 2015-08-24 13:56

recording that scream with open doors was not smart. my little one got pretty spooked :D

I enjoyed the mini games !
The anims are fun, and the gameplay works well, good job

conormn 2015-08-24 16:15

Love the mini-games and the art is really great :)

Fun little typing style game. I also found the boat level a bit too difficult, but nice challenge overall. Well done.

Great concept - I love typing-based games (Typing of the Dead anyone?). :D All you need is more games and I'd be sitting here playing for a lot longer. Good job!

Glorious art and the sound effects had me laughing. I loved the MONSTROUS drill instructor.
The siren scene was adorable :D

zenkerdus 2015-08-25 09:05

Bit clueless at first on what to do until i noticed the letters.
Good work!

tortoise 2015-08-25 15:43

Realy like it! Simple art style was nice and everything worked together well. But this does remind me of how bad I am at typing :)

stanov 2015-08-25 15:45

It's obvious, this isn't your first game :) Nice minigames, nice animations, nice soundeffects!

gcrsaldanha 2015-08-25 16:19

Thanks for this game! It's put a smile on my face while watching the animations hahaha :)

I particularly liked the first mini-games calling out to the ship so it flowed backwards. The second one, I did press the correct letter when over the correct tile, but maybe it wasn't centered enough. If it needed to be centered, I think that should have been made clearer. This was the only part I never completed. I general a good game and well worked graphics.

iossif 2015-08-25 17:58

i got some feedback regarding the unclear ghost level. i think about how i can make it more clear what to do in that one for the post-LD version.

jupiter_hadley 2015-08-25 20:38

Simple, but very well made. I included it in part 4 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/NqmWO8MUX6c

iossif 2015-08-25 20:56

thanks for the video!

georgebroussard 2015-08-26 13:40

This is a great idea and a great little game. Love the art and the different stages. Very clever. But, I suck at touch typing so it was too hard for me. Couldn't quite get through all 3 stages. Good job on the game.

orange08 2015-08-26 16:47

it took me a while to figure out this was a typing game... needs a tutorial that says "this is a typing game" to clear that up or something. They were fun little minigames, though :) Good job!

kevinworkman 2015-08-26 22:19

This is cute, although sometimes it seemed to not get the letter that I typed correctly (or maybe it was showing the wrong letter). Also, it might be more fun if there was more time to type and maybe more things to type?

iossif 2015-08-26 22:29

i had way more planned but reality did strike and cut down my programming hours :(
i will add it to the list for the post-LD build!

gbgames 2015-08-27 21:08

Heh, I laughed at the drill sergeant.

Typing games! It seems that it dealt only with a subset of keys, and I wonder why.

It took me a few tries to understand why I had failed in the last challenge.

The graphics were very cohesive, although the sound effects were rough.

iossif 2015-08-27 21:42

i did choose a subset (basically 8 buttons only) to make it a bit easier.

matthew-rayfield 2015-08-28 15:06

yeah!

nice mini game thing!

took me a bit to understand the scare game

but then i got it

and i'm a monster now!

good one!

good job!

slothmachine 2015-08-28 20:48

Cute graphics and lovely mini games. Well managed with such a minimal colors. Good job!

rudra 2015-08-29 13:25

I really liked this one. Good job!

slayerexe 2015-08-31 08:58

Nice minigames. Great art style, and I love the army references, very funny. Too hard sometimes xD

freaknarf 2015-09-02 06:33

Funny typing minigames :) Simple and short game, and nice pixel art.
