Really loved the any key pressing idea! tied in really well with typing specific words and pressing specific keys
[dear god my hand was cramping at the end though, lol] definitely simple but done really well, sounded good, looked good, very cool

Even though the game is kinda repetitive, I really enjoyed the music and the pixel art! Nice work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! But yeah I definitely agree on the repetitiveness, but that's also why I tried to keep the game pretty short. ^^

Really polished game, great work!

A nice, simple but addictive game with good pacing and progression. Great job

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yes, the progression/pacing was the thing I was worried about the most, but I think it landed in an ok spot. ^^

I had fun!

I will say that automatic upgrades was not something I expected, and definitely takes away from the player's agency, but you managed to bring that back with the keyboard "minigames."

The art is also very cohesive, and both the music and sound fit really well. I should learn a thing or two for my own projects!

Developer

I definitely thought about adding automatic upgrades, as is the standard with incremental games. But since the game can be beaten pretty quickly, with the whole any-button mechanic, I found it not necessary in this case. Thanks for playing and for the feedback! ^^

Thanks, now I can pretend to work. 😂 And thanks for the tendinitis!

Great job !

Developer

True, didn't even think about the possibilities in a work environment. xD And yeah, I probably have done irreparable damage to my fingers during my playtests, but oh well. Thank for playing!
