Game reminds me of QWOP and Mount your Friends.
Had the same issue at other players, not all keyboards can register all keypresses at the same time. I had to try and see what keys could be registered at the same time.

Did manage to beat the first level though ! (Which remimds me: You might want to do your game in English as I had no idea what the buttons after level 1 were saying ;P)

Great job !

Original idea with an octopus climbing a wall by letters. There are only two levels but they were not too easy and not too hard. I could not press more than the keys at a time, but that is probably because the computer cannot register more simultaneous events. Music and graphics are both great!

Very good interpretation of theme scale, hhhh, very funny game. I tried several times but with two hands. I doubt if it possible to use one hand to climb the cliff. Really good relaxing experience.

This is really cool! Never played anything like this before. Took a little bit to figure out what I was doing, but once it clicked I really enjoyed it. Cool little game!

Really original idea! It's like a twister for keyboard :) The pixel art was pretty cool too. La música un poco rayante jajajaj. Great work overall!

an interesting game! it was a bit hard to tell which letters i could or couldn't reach for, and i found myself hitting keys only for nothing to happen haha -- overall, a cute and fun game

This was surprisingly tricky in a really fun way! I loved the octopus and the animations with them swinging around. I accidentally fell through the water somehow and continuously dropped for eternity round and round, which was also kinda fun. Cool idea!

I enjoyed that. Well done!

I love the idea. At some point i was stuck when neither I nor V nor P seemed to work. But I think it could be really fun with a little bit of polish!

I like the twist on climbing using letters, that's a fun idea! There were some issues when the same letter appeared more than once on a level, but otherwise it worked nicely. Especially when playing one-handed :)
