Really cool concept, great presentation! I wish my AZERTY keyboard was supported, other than that it was great fun trying to touch type that traffic, nice work! :)
Thank you for playing! Ahh I didn't find the time to get round to accounting for different keyboards, I'm sorry!
the car crashing is funny as hell 10/10
*sees the name* A typing game… wonder how it deals with Dvorak. *tries it* Looks like it interprets all my keypresses as QWERTY. Well, at least I can blame all the times I pressed the wrong key on not being used to QWERTY!
I like this game but I feel like something's not clear about the lose condition. Apparently it's when the fire meter gets to zero, but most of the time I'm not looking up there, so it just seems like I randomly lost (and/or is it when too many cars are waiting?). (And I'm not sure why it goes down; it says something about "stalls" in the description, but does that mean when a car isn't moving, or when they're told to move but can't, or what?)
Thank you for playing! I'm sorry, I didn't have time for a number of features I wanted to add like levels with lower difficulty, which included different keyboards..
Yes, so by "stall" I just mean when a car is stationary for any reason. If they're held up by the stop mark, or by a car in front doesn't matter. I wanted to add some visual/ audio feedback for this (like the cars tooting in annoyance or something) but didn't manage it in time. Hopefully the fire system is visual enough that you can realise you are close to losing when all the cars start slowing down again and the fire colours fade away. Thank you for the feedback!
Superb gameplay, simple and addictive, perfectly on theme and a perfect sized project for a jam, better than any touch typing game made by professionals, couldn't stop playing!!!
Nice gameplay! Really had me focusing from the very start
Thank you for playing!
