Simple and cute concept, and I like the drawings on the cards. My best score was 111, but it was pretty close to that most of the time. The Fish is definitely the trickiest one for me, because the exact opposite action looks almost identical since it uses the same artwork. I'd maybe consider having a different color variant of the fish when you need to reverse the button order. Maybe it's a rotten fish or something.
Either way, I liked my time with this little game :)

Good game! It felt nice and rewarding when I started getting into the flow and was knocking out card after card correctly.
Even with a simple concept, this game is very fun! When the new cards are introduced, it becomes a lot more challenging, as you have to hold or press different combinations of the keys, and when there are many different cards, it throws you off and you get very confused and make a mistake. It is also very polished and the animations are satisfying. Great game!
I like this kind of games and I really enjoyed this particular one - it's simple and catching at the same time. Love how the sound effects add up to the background tune and help building the right atmosphere. Good job, keep it up!
Solid and addictive game with nice art and sound effects! I think making it clearer what the counter is for, because I believe it mattered both for time but also how many cards you did incorrectly, would be nice. Great work!
Oh I love this!! The gameplay is fun and easy to get into, sound effects are nice, visuals are great! Good job!
this is so simple yet so fun, i love how the countdown just keeps you vigilant at all times, absolutely amazing, nice job!
peak game dude i got a score to up to 70 the only i would like is to have more indicates to when i messed up a card like a different sound or wtv

I participated in a research study recently that had a bunch of sorting minigames in it--this reminded me of one of those in a VERY GOOD WAY. Super satisfying once you get into the flow.
Great idea and pretty polished. It's simple but pretty addictive.
Game does not scale correctly on ultrawide screens unfortunately so I had to play in windowed mode.
