Nice work creating literally all the assets during the 48 hours! Real impressive. The game itself definitely felt out-of-control pretty quick. 

Developer

Nah, way more people did a better job tan me xP. Still, thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

I broke my keyboard, THANKS!

jk... Great game!

Developer

I'm not responsible of damages, blame the bugs! (?

Submitted

This is a wild one! I want more full-keyboard games now. What a great idea!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Maybe some day a full-mouse game will be made

Submitted

I really liked your game!! The entire game is immersive and fun to play. 

I loved how you use the keyboard. I also use the keyboard as main mechanic. If you could check out will be cool XD https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/697916

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Your game is also pretty neat

Submitted

Well, you really did hit the theme! Well done XD

One issue is, that you can litterly just spam all the keys at the same time XD

Maybe I would change it that if you like press the wrong key you get punished or some stuff. Just a thought.

but overall really nice game :D

also feel free to check out my game as well, would mean a lot to me :D

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, i gathered from the responses. I think the best idea would've been to add a "combo" system for hitting keys correctly.

I'll check out your game later :D

Submitted

it's very fun very chaotic, i love how the bugs come "out of ctrl"

Developer

Thank you, glad you and so many people liked it. Makes it all worth it!

Submitted

This is a great little game! I love that you have a variety of different bugs and buffs to keep things interesting! The visuals are clear and well made, as is the audio! Well done :D

PS: If you'd like, please try out my game too :)) I made it in Godot as well!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I'm glad someone else like the sprites! Though even i admit the background is a bit hideous XD

Submitted

Love the game. Great minds think alike ;)

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Though yours is really the superior one haha! Glad you enjoyed it c:

Submitted

You've got a lot more mechanics though.  I love the bug carrying the letters!

Developer(+1)

Though yours looks and plays better. If we combined our powers, we could've hd the ultimate typing game! (?

Submitted

<3

Developer

(Actually, if you guys actually want to try and make that, I'd totally be down! Sounds like fun!)

Submitted

Amazing concept :)

Submitted

Saw it on GMTK livestream. Fun game for sure and as Mark said - it got the potential :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Glad you found enjoyment out of it!

Submitted

Very cool concept. It would be important to have a mechanic to prevent players from simply pressing all the keys all the time.

Developer

There is! Though i guess it may be a bit too lenient. Still, Thank you for your comment!

I loved this! The music is good, it just gets loud.

Developer

I'll try to make it quieter next time! Thanks!

Submitted

Interesting take on the theme! It was too easy to just button-mash and win though. Perhaps you could have added things to avoid smashing, so keyboard mashing would make you lose?

Developer(+1)

I thought of making key break and have a cooldown, but i wasn't sure how to properly communicate that to the player. Still, thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

I like this interpretation of the theme. Just like the other commenter, I also end up just mashing my keyboard throughout the end. I'm not quite sure if this game was better with or without that strat, but since it seems this was your intention, I think it's all good. I also had a bit of fun with the game!

Developer

I tried to remove it, but then i tested it and i was just... "This feels wrong", so i removed it! Glad you had fun, that's what matters!

Submitted

Very nice! Tested my typing skills hahah

Developer

It's not just typing. It's... advanced typing. Thank you for the comment!

Submitted

It took me a while to understand the adequacy to the theme: "Out of Control". hauhahu congratulations, it was simple but very fun.

Developer

Stretching it a bit thin, but who's counting? Thank you!

I'm glad it is!

Intriguing concept. Fun to get into

Submitted

Not usually into typing games, but I actually really dig this. Great spin on the theme ^^ I'm not ashamed to say I resorted to button mashing the keys in the end ;D

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Button mashing is as valid as any strategy

Submitted

I love the interpretation of the theme and the game is quite fun but there are some things that annoy me. The music is quite overwhelming and the artstyle of the keyboard, ui, etc and the enemies don't match. Overall a pretty fun game tho. (If you want to, you can rate my game here: https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2020/rate/695101)

Developer

Care to explain by what you mean by "overwhelming"? I don't wanna make that mistake again!
