In what way does your game fit the theme?
This game appears to begin very easily, with a simple task - type letters to the beat. However, it quickly gets more challenging as the notes start to come faster and faster. It challenges the player to maintain focus and get into a rhythm amidst the torrent of letters.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I did the programming, art, and design all myself. I borrowed one sound clip from opengameart (credit is in the download). I also used the Fredoka One font licensed under the Open Font License.
NOTE: It's come to my attention that the current download is missing some DLL files. You may temporarily download a complete version below until Itch allows me to reupload. Apologies for the inconvenience!

This game gets chaotic very fast, even on a low bpm. However, I would recommend changing it so that the player can type the letter if the letter is even touching the box at all. Otherwise, it has to almost be perfect every time. It would be better to have a lower score than to not have keys register just because they are a smidgen off.
Thanks for the feedback, i agree the timing windows do seem a bit strict. I like your idea of making it more lenient with a lower score instead of a miss. Currently the window for not getting a miss is - 144 ms, so I'll try out some other cutoffs
The cat is cute:)
Hi all, thanks for letting me know about the issue - I think this might be because I forgot to copy some DLL files >.<. If you see this you could try the download here. Sorry about that!
Unfortunately not able to play it due to an error in the build
I'd still appreciate it if you could still play/rate my game though! :)
Sorry about that, I posted a new download link with complete DLLs so I believe it should run now. I'll be glad to check out your game :)
I received an error "Unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)" on launch. I was looking forward to trying that out :/
Hi, sorry about that! I posted a new download link with complete DLLs so I believe it should run now.
Doesn't work for me unfortunately :( Gives me an error on load.
Hi, sorry about that! I posted a new download link with complete DLLs so I believe it should run now if you were still interested
