Cool beans. I like the fact that you have different difficulty levels. I got 15 on the insane level, I guess I ain't a good typist but still it was fun and I got some typing practice in. I wish I could rate sound as well because you did a good job with the music.
Ahh!!! I type fast so I love these type of games but the font ruined it for me! The G's and C's look identical. Oh well, the upbeat music and simple visuals are nice anyways. Having the music get weirder if you were about to lose was a nice touch. Great game.
Simple game pulled off pretty well, I had fun with it :smile: lots of words I wasn't expecting.
Nice, I think Insane is the only way to play as this isn't a game that should really last more than a minute. Per the Jam rules, you should opt out of audio though as you didn't make the music. Cheers!
Nice, simple and highly addictive game. Especially if you, like me, like word games. Got 299 on Casual, and only 20 on Intense. As already mentioned, the letter 'C' and 'G' looked a bit too alike which made it harder than neccessary, but apart from that I had a good time
I wasn't expecting to see a typing game with this theme, but you made it work! I particularly liked how the music started to slow down and the screen started to grow darker as the room shrank -- nice touch.
The room shrinking was a simple but cool effect. I like the tone and humor. It was consistent and well delivered even for a small game.
Simple and cool idea.
This game has a pretty cool premise. It feels very genius.
Cool idea. I feel like words should have more variations in length, rather than a fixed increase, to give more rhythm in the gameplay. This should also give players a chance to bounce back -- If they're near losing, and all the words are long, they won't have a chance of getting back out.
On normal I was able to get 33 words, but I wasn't able to get much past 15 in Insane. All the questionably existent words really throw me for a loop when I try to type them because I have to spend so much time figuring out what order the letters are in.
This game is simple and pleasant. I think the difficulty ramps up too quickly (maybe I shouldn't try insane...), but that's not really a complaint. Nice work!
@undefinist Thanks, I really appreciate the quality constructive criticism!
i typed 24 words while drunk.... great game lol
Great game! Interesting take on the theme, and probably a great starting place for a typing tutor. If only I could stop hitting backspace when I hit the wrong key :laughing:
Simple and genious! Good job, you guys sent too well with jam theme . Haha
42 at Normal, 21 at Insane. Whew, it gets FAST! Awesome. A fun, short little game that was worth playing through a few times to try to find where it gets too fast for me to handle. No real complaints at all. Nice simple fun experience.
Really fun game! I got to 25 in insane mode. One thing that would make this much more fun for me would be a leader-board or some goals (e.g., getting a "badge" after you pass 20, another badge after 30 etc.), to give more motivation to keep playing with a better score.
Really liked the effect of the music and the fade out when you're about to die :)
Simple but engaging and well executed! Though the pacing seems a bit fast but that might just be me.. :) I got 25 on normal, 105 on casual!
Simple and fun game! I can see it being an exciting game to play among friends. Maybe there can be a verses mode in the future? I also love how you used music to add pressure to the player.
Awesome game. I was pleasantly suprised with the overall mood of the game. Hope you develop a post jam version for this!
I saw your post on LD feed and had to try that right away, the audio distortion when the walls close up is such a nice touch, I wonder how you did it though, is it a change in pitch or a low bass filter? Anyhow, got 104 words only, Im not a fast typer haha. Great job with the game, I had a lot of fun.
Very cool game ! We tried to fight each other with my girlfriend (ps: I won haha) , good job guys !
Nice concept, I got 18 max myself. One thing I really like about this game vs other typing games is that you have a crazy amount of rare words in here so you can't rely on muscle memory. Did you intentionally find a rare word dictionary? lol is that even a thing? Another thing I really, REALLY liked about this game is that it's a short typing game. Wayyy too many typing games here take a long time to play, especially if you're a good typist, so I'll play like 5 mins and then get bored and quit. Great job standing out in a normally stale genre!!
Cool entry, after a while it gets repetitive maybe adding new mechanics like a crazy time where you spawn a word to get a better score or changing the office art overtime I think would make the experience more fun.
I just love those typing games, and your approach is very well handled and combined with the theme! Great job. Had a lot of fun!
