You've been procrastinating on an essay and it's time to get started... but there's a twist! Can you avoid some spooky ghosts AND finish your essay on time?

Extremely well done art and music! You nailed the atmosphere and this got real tense real quick!
A really amazing game! I especially liked how all the monsters worked so well together and the challenge that gave (bunny and knocker...). Need to improve my typing speed to actually beat this lol
I love horror games! This is great >< The knocker kept getting me haha
Fun: amazing, very creepy, trying to manage all the monsters was tough and stressful, I just wish you had changed the typing to something else.
presentation: the best so far, amazing, great animation, great artwork, great sound design, beautiful
Creativity: great idea, starting an essay, while avoiding the monsters was so spicial
Such a cool game. Each added threat was engaging on their own, and aren't able to overlap, so it avoided the usual Fnaf fan game problem of being boring before all of the threats are added but also prevented unfair deaths from multiple threats at once. The visuals and music are so charming and detailed, it's super impressive you got all this done in 10 days. This kid really needs to just write his essays during the day, though, they're like 30 words long and he's so sleep deprived his sentences don't make grammatical sense. My day 5 essay ended with "Overall; hospital."
I hate horror games for a reason. I'm too scared for the atmosphere of this category. And you guys nailed it perfectly. Though I didn't finish the game, I still like it very much! (especially the slender man thing)
Took me various tries because I'm not use to FNAF-like mechanics (skill issue), but honestly the concept is so cool and it's nicely executed! The art is cute but at the same time it sets the proper mood for a tense night!
Wow that was intense! The music and SFX is tense, the game feels very high stakes, I was genuinely typing for my life!!! Really well done little horror game, I was scared fr lucky I played this in the day or I'd be terrified (in a good way!)
Typeracer meets FNAF causes heart attacks and arthritis. Well done this is a flawless executed concept with beautiful music, art and atmosphere as well as engaging gameplay that creates an experience I am surprised to find inside a game jam. I scare very easily to jumpscares, but I had to power through for this review cause this was an experience unlike any other. Well done and hats off to the entire team!
Never have I wanted to improve my typing speed more than playing this game has made me want to... Great game! Night 5 was quite difficult simply because I couldn't type accurately fast enough (I did beat it thought!). Overall very well put together!
I think I’m gonna have nightmares lol. Great game!
Lol the jumpscares got me real good. I really enjoyed the game. I did notice that "The Watcher" appeared only once in the 5th night, but after I died to it, it never appeared again. Not sure if it was intentional or not.
Overall, I really had fun, and it definitely took me a few tries to finish it. Good stuff!
This game is horrifying! The first time I almost jumped out of my chair.
Besides that, the game is beautifully done! I love the lighting inside the room , the music is amazing, everything seems and feels polished. Great game all around. Great work!
is like fnaf 4 if the kid was in college :sob: fr tho the man freaked me out a bit, i got huge nostalgia vibes from him :3 (slender man :3) Pretty cool game!
I'm a man that doesn't play games because they're relaxing, but rather because they're intense and this hit the right spot. My hands were shaking trying to type as fast. Right up my alley. I will, however, say that the button to leave being space did catch me a few times because I instinctively hit space to start a new word. Perhaps an option to change that would have been good, but other than that, really good entry!
Really good game, it was kinda stressful in the last level but it was so much fun. I loved the idea and the art, the bunny was so scary
Amazing game, insane we both did a typing game, but I love the sfx and the art, keep up the good work!
This game is so professional and polished, it's really impressive. The art, effects, and whole mood art great. The art in particular is really charming and cute for such a scary game. I have a feeling this will do very very well in the rankings. I would love to see a streamer play it, maybe shovel will!
Thanks for playing our game! We had two artists work on this and we managed to balance out the styles pretty well :D glad you liked it!
Great job! The sound effects match the vibe really well, the art is also incredibly polished. The game mechanics are really entertaining; I have never been so stressed about typing something ;D
Really well done! Got stressful at the end.haha. Nice ramp up in difficulty. Really solid submission, well done
