We used Unity, Photoshop and free drawing apps.

How did you use generative AI? (If you did)
We didn't use generative AI aside for consulting ChatGPT for coding problems.

Cool game! I got a pretty weak high score, but I blame that on my Keyboard to mouse transition speed, not the game XD. I liked the jumping back and forth, and It was cool to try a few times to get as high of a score as I could. I think it would be awesome to see a high-score screen! Good job and congrats on the submission!

Highscore of 107!!

 I liked the implementation of the milk mechanic, having to break from typing to drink milk was a fun mixup

The caps got me and I think a few other people but the game art is really cool and charming

Awesome game. I like the drawing stile, animations and the gameplay too.

I loved the animations here and there! I wish that there was a limit to drink the milk (like writing three names and then drinking to survive and portmanteus to make it harder to type) but it did feel nice! Especially usable as a new writing sim because you have to let go of the keyboard time to time if you get what i mean :)

Love the art! Maybe worth mentioning somewhere that the typing is case sensitive. Makes it a bit more difficult, I think the game would be just fine without it!

Doesn't seem like the input is working. The only thing I can do is desperately stay alive by clicking milk. 10 outta 10. Great existential despair simulator :P
