It feels a bit boring. Nice 3D models though.

The web link doesn't seem to work, had to download but ran fine when I got the windows version. It seems weird that in a programming game semicolon doesn't type out, I was just spamming that out of habit.

Wow, it's incredible how accurately you simulated my Ludum Dare experience. Hacking furiously at a keyboard while trying to keep caffeine levels high enough. Of course, the gameplay lacks a real challenge and something to motivate the player. I would suggest not making it time-based and introducing some features allowing the player to interact more with the mechanics, e.g. influence how fast the power runs out, how "efficient" the coding is, etc. In this state, I don't know if I would actually call it a game, since there's no real feedback whether the player is doing well or not. The graphics and mood are fitting, the soundtrack change was a bit sudden but appropriate. I also like the animations and the fact that the monitor actually shows what I'm typing. So it definitely needs some work, but hey, you made everything yourself in 72 hours, and it works! :D

Your HTML link doesn't seem to exist.

It's a bit boring, and doesn't seem to have a real goal, but for a concept it's cool! :)

Interesting concept, and it is nice that you went for realistic 3D character with animations, tho the game needs a little bit more than random key hitting, such simplified gameplay could work if there was something spectacular or calming to look at while playing. Pile of clothes on the floor is a nice touch.
