This game is very cool! I enjoyed it, it's a really clever concept and a good message, it should be played during car exams hahaha! good job! rated! please check out my game too :D
The game was fun to play, and it sends a really strong message. They should make new drivers play it in drivers ed. The end crash and sirens are brutal paired with the leaderboard. Really great work!
Haha well done ! I made it to 320 !
very cool game, I loved it !
Interesting take on the theme. Very tough. Loved the leaderboard at the end. Made me try quite a few times. Couldn't top the leader though.
Glad you went back and tried a couple times! That was the goal of the leaderboard!
Cool play on the theme! Also well polished
This game makes me go YES!
No, don't do this! 😂
Nice job! It was appropriately hard and definitely fits the theme. It was fun to play.
re: your question... I tried both ways and found myself moving my hand. I'm too used to typing with two hands to be quick enough with one.
Yeah, checked your game out! Very cool. I see we went in a similar direction!
Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! Here's a question for players: anyone try keeping one hand on the mouse and one hand on the keyboard at all times? That's how I always play and the other devs make fun of me V_V Seems like most people just move their hands back and forth between mouse and keyboard.
Really good game, maybe you could add some penalties when typing wrong letters
Yeah, we're definitely very forgiving on typing. At one point, we took out all the apostrophes in all the texts because we found that even just holding the shift key while driving was too hard for people. Hence why all the contractions in the texts look the way they do. A little game design secret ;)
So good, but hard
Let that be a lesson that it's too hard for real life too!
I got the idea and immediately started laughing while typing as fast as I could. This better be a winner!
From your mouth to Mark's ears
Nice idea! Please don't do this! xD
Haha yeah, at some point in development we were brainstorming all the different ways we would put disclaimers to not actually do this behavior and then we had the thought, "What if we just made it the name of the dang game?"
Who has that many people text them!!? This was a fun game (some messages and responses made me chuckle) and was a refreshing and serious take on the theme. The game played and felt good. Very very nice submission
I suppose this person's gotta keep their snapstreaks going or something!
I love this game, its so inventive and fun, would be a great dual purpose educational game for typing and driving.
Educational in the "don't do this" sense and not in "gotta train to get better" sense, I hope!
