wow great music to be honest and cool gameplay too!

This is pretty awesome! The music is great, and the popping sfx was very satisfying! When I was typing away, I thought to myself "This would be a great game for people learning how to type without looking down at the keyboard".  I could see typing classes (if those still exists) using this as a tool and just people in general that want to get better at typing without looking at the keyboard.

Great job, I love it.

Thank you!! Glad spending extra time on the key pop was worth it.

That’s actually a pretty cool idea IMO, kind of like those piano games where you need to press the right key for the right amount of time.

This is pretty cool haha. I really like how even the menu is physics based. Satisfying to combine and type them away.

Developer

Thanks, I wanted to make the menu feel as a part of the game rather than some overlay. Glad you liked it :)

This is a great for my ADHD and something like this might definietly help keep me from watching videos or other distracting things while I code. Great little idea and inspiring!

Developer

Hey thanks!! I’m glad you found a good use out of this small idea!

The game is quite stale, especially once I realize that I can just spam all keys to make every letter disappear. Other than that, it's a really relaxing experience. Sound design is great!

Developer(+1)

I do agree it can get stale soon as I designed it to be used alongside coding and such. Thanks for playing!

Was fun to try !! The music theme is really nice. I will play this again while coding, as the game itself becomes little boring on its own ! But it’s not supposed to be played on its own so it’s great :) good job this is very satisfying, and so I like it

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Agreed, on it’s own it becomes a tad boring after a while. I think of it as more like a fun timer/streak system.

honestly pretty cozy game, the lofi music is nice it just lets ur mind wander while u type. somehow relaxing even tho the backlog is literally piling up lol. the theme interpretation is cool too.

Developer

Thank you!! I mean., who knew being lazy was soooo relaxing (~ ̄▽ ̄)~

This is a really interesting game! The take on the theme is quite unique! Well done!

Developer

Thank you, I’m glad you had fun!! (^._.^)ノ
