Very interesting take on the theme. Instead of your space being limited in-game, you have to deal with the limited space of your own hands.

Very clever! I love games that make you use something more physical as the game's concept rather than the obvious takes on the theme. Amazing job (and the fish is super cute too!)
I love it! Great job!
A breath of fresh air, never thought of a game utilizing the entire keyboard! and it was nice of you to consider how many keys were able to be pressed down.
I found this game very charming and like how I had to remember what the last key I had pressed so I could let go of it. by the end of the game I had my hands all over my keyboard it was loads of fun!
music and graphics were also a treat to the ears and eyes respectively :D
Great use of the theme! This is a neat game idea I've never seen done before! Good work!
Clever use of the theme and nice art! :)
Unique idea! Suggestion: Show the keys that no longer need to be pressed down so we know which keys to switch from
Hey I played it on Linux and it works well. Fun game btw. It reminds me of the old Twister game, with my finger. Nice graphics also.
A very clever idea and really fun!
This is extremely cool, a brilliant take on the theme and an excellent implementation. It was really hard to keep track of which keys I no longer needed to hold so perhaps a slighlty longer transition would help (or maybe with a few more tries I can learn to look always at the first and last keys), but still, this is a great idea and a very fun game, great job!
I agree with the rest of the comments here, clever and very fun take on the theme ! Watching the face of the lil fish as the water goes down makes you *really* willing to save him haha. Great job !!
@svkj Thank you for playing :) Not giving the keys that you don't longer need is intentional, so you have to watch your keyboard and try hard. But we understand that it can be frustrating ^^
So fun for a little concept ! Great job.
a very good idea that makes the brain smoke. It feels like you need more fingers to play it. Well done to both devs.
it kinda twisted my fingers! haha, very fun to play, played the 8 keys, worked flawlessly with my keyboard
One of the coolest games I tried so far ! Super fun and innovative concept, nice graphics (love the fish), only thing is it's hard to play on a non-qwerty keyboard :( that's basically what made me lose everytime haha. Great entry !
Today I learned that my poor brain can not handle doing 8 inputs at once and then figuring out which one to drop at any given time. Cute little game! Simple but effective.
I like mechanics and fun. Great job!
Really cool game! It was really challenging trying to figure out which key I could let go of when they dropped off. Overall I think this was a great entry for this jam and a very solid game. Nice work!
Brilliant! 8 inputs is hard mode! You could make it even more challenging (not that it is needed) if you were "punished" for pressing wrong keys.
Limited space on your keyboard. Good interpretation
Great job 👏
So glad I found this game. What a treat!
@sdelay thanks you for the feedback about linux, and your nice comment !
Love the concept, very simple yet challenging, and a cool take on the theme with the goldfish running out of space. A couple of notes: some key combinations are impossible on some keyboards due to keyboard ghosting (basically some key combinations may not be recognized because of how keyboards are wired internally), and the game is hard to play on a french keyboard because it assumes a QWERTY layout. :smile:
Other than that, I loved it, very nice visuals and music, and, again, cool concept. Bien joué à vous deux !
Simple, effective, fun. On a azerty keyboard is quite hard. But it reminds me a lot the "Twister" game. Graphics are also very good
Well thought out unique take on the theme! well done :-)
This was a cute game. Interestingly enough my keyboard's limit seemed to be split down the middle. (Left side reached a limit while the right side still worked)
Simple but extremely pleasant to play
I love the look of this game, so clean :D
Very cute and fun!
Simple but effective, great game.
This game may be frustrating, but it still has simple instructions. A 5 for innovation.
funny and fun... there was no problem pressing the right button, just letting go of the one that was no longer needed :) nice entry
