very funny game (love the sound effects!) and well executed, especially given the time frame. Interesting take on the theme, fun to play (I should brush up my typing skills, it seems). Also enjoy the art direction, everything fits together lovely. good game!
This was EXTREMELY fun to play, and, also, EXTREMELY DIFFICULT! I loved it!
Brilliant! I had some real fun playing this game. It's a little unwieldy trying to dodge and type, and I invariably get hit when I'm moving a speech bubble, but you've balanced well for that. Great game.
Really good job dude. Nothing else to say.
The minimalistic graphics are a nice touch.
I still don't quite understand what it is that the player is doing in the game. Why does "upsetqw" count as a word? Shouldn't be like real known words?
Anyways that thing aside it was an enjoyable little game!
This game is amazing.
Those kids are too intelligent to be stuck in
the house throwing pieces of furniture that you stored
in random drawers around you house, and your wife should
be selling those bouncy objects instead of letting the intelligent kids play catch with them.
Sound effects were.. neat? Little too easy though. (My game is TOO hard. I saw you said something about that. There's wall jumping in mine if that helps)
Great game, sounds and minimalistic graphics.
Absolutely brilliant!
Sound is great, very well executed. The approach is genius. "Monstering" really cracked me up. Really fun to play. Keep up the good work:D
Very fun take on the theme, and the sound effects are a very good fit to the humor and mood.
Pretty hard though :-)
Haha very funny. This is a good typing trainer. I love the idea and the cool implementation. It is a little hard in the last level.
Great sound effects and also your art style is very good!
Nice take on the theme, game is very innovative and fun, but damn it's hard.
Difficult and very very fun... I love it!!!
What to say, what to say.
The graphics are a nice beginning. It feels rather empty though. I understand the need for a large, open area in order to leave the player room to dodge, but it would have been nice if it had been integrated a bit better into the overall game. Instead of just a flat room, it could have been an entrance hall in a mansion with various things to throw in the corners. Just generally more detail in the background would have helped to make it more visually interesting.
It's nice to see a game that has some semblance of a story worked into it, that was very refreshing. Reading the various blurbs at the beginning of each stage was nice.
When typing things out I felt very constrained and unnecessarily stressed out rather than genuinely challenged. I can't move around while typing something or while moving the speech bubble around, so I'm completely exposed and pretty much up to the game's mercy as to whether I'll get hit in the process. A way to move both the parent and the speech bubble at the same time would have helped alleviate that problem.
Otherwise the gameplay follows a nice difficulty curve, arching upwards and adding new elements to liven it up. Well done on that!
I love it. It's innovative, fun and great in every aspect
One of the bests here :3 The gameplay it's amazing and very innovative. The only lack I see it's the audio (no music, collision sounds are too loud), otherwise... I-have-no-words! ;D
Nice work, the difficulty increases well. It made me type quite fast :)
Really digging the mixture of shmups the typing games. I feel like the level before the last is harder than the "final boss", but maybe throwing every colored object at the player would have been hard for someone who does not play shoot em ups regulalry.
What a charming little game! Day six is so mean that it starts being frustrating before looping over to hilarious. Funny take on the theme, obviously; I'm surprised your game is the only one that comes up if you look up "monstering" !!!
Really funny idea! And game is very polished, hard work on the graphics! When there is 2 kids, game suddenly became too difficult as no way to tell which kid has heard which word already.
Really funny! Seeing all my 'monster' at the end was great!
Really great entry. I loved the interpretation on the theme. More levels, slower progression, and maybe different types of items could make it sellable.
Pretty funny, also really liked the tutorial/intro to each level. Good job!
Very interesting mechanic.
I loved the mechanic having the player come up with their own sentences and having them read out at the end. It was a really cute mechanic. And I loved how you tied it to the theme. CHILDREN ARE MONSTERS!!! I know...I have a little sister. j.k.
Very cool typing game, I really enjoyed the mechanics as you had to kind of keep an eye on both what you're typing and what is going to hit you. Overall, very well done 5/5
Incredibly creative game! It was a tad confusing at first but when the game started I quickly grasped the objective and the game mechanic.
It was hard as hell though! hahaha. Damn bratty kids!
Anyway, awesome entry, really fun! Congrats!
Very clever and creative! I love the way you have to type something out and then actually control the speech bubble! The text between levels is great too.
Quite frankly this is a masterpiece. I laughed uncontrollably for about 10 minutes as I attempted to create order in some kind of unwieldly monster-hell. Adorable art-style and amazing take on the theme. Great job.
Great take on the theme! I included it in part 18 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/U5AMORGkiRk
Funny, but quite difficult. Well done!
Very nice interpretation of the theme. Liked the idea of the game a lot. It had a very deliberate pace and a relatively smooth difficulty that made it pleasant to play. I'm not exactly a fan of multi-tasking where typing and dodging seemed like a necessity, but the overall presentation was great! Definitely would love to see this game extended, if for its silly plot.
