Even though GMTK doesn't provide an official overall score, most teams put effort into every category. We made this ranking by averaging each game's category scores so everyone can easily compare their overall performance.
Wow, wasn't excepting such a cool concept xD The art is amazing, the fact you play is coach is novel, and having the challenge in itself tell the story is really well though off ! Congrats on the game, it was - so - fun ! :)
what a great game!!! i love the art direction, and the narrative makes it so funny!! love the typing mechanic, get back out there!
I'm a terrible typer.... yet this game is very fun!
Strong sence of style and for a typing game a very fun way to do a main mechanic.
Well done!
this is probably my favorite game this game jam i really got fired up to do as much words as i can to get back up, i really liked the idea of actually doing a story and instead of fighting stronger people you fight things that are hard in real life thats really a great idea. WOW!
this is one of my favorite games in the jam ive rated so far, I think this could be one of Marks favorites for the jam too. really enjoyed the story progression and was a little nervous about my typing speed. but im glad you werent to ruthless about typing mistakes decreasing the time
I was so focused on the fasst typing that didnt see all those plot twists coming. Very silly very good, 10/10
Ok wow I was not expecting this. I played the first few levels in hard mode to flex (really nice touch to have adjustable difficulty btw!), but then the storytelling hooked me up so bad I had to revert back to normal.
Also it was really hard, I’m just seeking an excuse. But the storytelling did grab me by the feels. It’s silly I love it.
Damn. I don’t know what to say, it’s a great game? Looks nice, sounds nice, feels nice, the concept is nice, I had fun and will recommend it to my teammates right away.
