The graphics are amazing, i loved the typing animation and that is random, i feel like the randomness on the words is too loose (it can give a high speed to a long word in the very beginning) I think this could be improved by having a skill meter to allow for speed and lengthy words to appear after mastering shorter and slower words.

Awesome game! Loved the little computer model with the keyboard that typed and the heath and score integrated in one. The text was moving a little to fast for me, like @red-chilakillers said it might be cool if the difficulty increased overtime. Overall enjoyed the little experience and thought you did a great job!

Nice little game, but it would be nice with different difficulty levels!

Love typing games! This was fun, some control over difficulty would be ideal!

The graphics for this game are really good! It's already been mentioned, but a difficulty system would be useful. Sometimes it's really easy and sometimes it's really hard.

lovely little typing game, looks great and has the perfect amount of polish. would be nice to have fullscreen though the text is a bit small on my display

Neat game. A little bit too hard at the beginning I think. Also, it seemed like sometimes it would register the wrong word for what I was typing. Still it was quite pretty. A better font might be nice though sometimes it was hard to read at speed.

This is really well tought. The graphs are beautiful, I was kinda slow to understand what I had to do at first but when I realized I needed do type It was a fun gameplay...(but I still typed too slow lol)

This is really well put together! I did find that the words moved a bit too quickly for me to read them in a lot of cases, but that might be due to the smaller laptop screen I'm playing on. Really well done! :)

Solid little game! Best-sounding (and looking) virtual keyboard I've seen thus far in *any* game, and the computer itself is delightfully chunky and retro. Even with all my years of coding, I wound up being too slow around ~30-35 points in and got swarmed, but had fun regardless. My only complaint is the font can obscure what you're supposed to type a bit, but it's only a minor issue & doesn't detract from the satisfying clickety-clack of mashing out words.

Nice work!

Nice work, pretty hard for me though :smile:

congrat for your first submission. Typing game are cool. You could improve your game, just by changing the scroll direction (up to down or even right to left) because you start seeing the end of the words, that is inconvinient. Thank you for your game

This is very well done, typing tutor game. Would've loved to have seen an option to adjust speed and text size. But nicely done!

I love this game... the mode created by the lighting and the juicy satisfying sound effects! I just love this game..... #addicted. Though I would add some music (calm and low tone). It would give more mood but other than that, congrats... you just made one of the most addicting game I played on ludum dare 47.

I love how its incorporated into the website and how the its displayed on the screen as well as the buttons actually being animated randomly. Sometimes it felt like I was typing something off screen already instead of something on it still or I couldn't type out the last latter of a word for some reason. I like it pretty nice small game!

banholio 2020-10-09 22:53

The presentation was awesome. I enjoted the game for what it was. I wish there was some kind of reward for combos, or a way to incentive the player to be better.

One minor suggestion: Having the text slide in from the opposite direction. It would feel more natural because people read from left to right. Other than that not a bad entry! Solid sound design.

Eyy I love the concept, the visuals and the game mechanic are really nice. Maybe some big words break the flow of the game because they create difficulty peaks.

Good job!

anaferus 2020-10-10 12:59

So short and delicate. Good job. For some reason I smiled when i played :D

jamesor 2020-10-10 15:27

Looks nice, but was a bit too difficult for me to play. I think it would make a nice typing tutor if it started off easier and gradually got more difficult.

thomas-volpato 2020-10-10 15:29

Nice game, but I dont see the stuck in a loop theme

savvy-community 2020-10-10 15:48

Hey :D , thanks for showing us your game! I had a very fun (and hard) time playing it, at some point I was typing nonsense ahah. I would have liked a connection between the words to create some sort of context because right know it feels a bit gratuitous, you could create some funny storytelling with this concept! I also really liked the visual :). Congrats to you for your first entry, it's a really nice mini game :D

Cheers!

robonaut121 2020-10-11 16:56

Maybe it's just because I suck at typing, but the game is WAY too fast. Honestly, unless you're one of those people who types really fast, you don't stand a chance playing this game. Apart from that, I loved the graphics and the sound effects were nice.

The idea is fun, and I like the visuals.
