Cool game concept. I failed  a few times, but now....Pizza Party! ;) I enjoyed my play through. Really nice work, especially for the short timeline. :)

Good stuff! Reminds me of a typing game I played before.

This looks like a great idea, but it's just not finished. If it were longer and more complex with differnet servers (dns, cache...) it would be cool i think. But as it stands it's just way too simple and short. (It would mean a lot if you would rate my game if you have the time)

Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback. I'm glad you liked the concept and I agree that it's too short currently. I had a lot of ideas on how to expand it but ran out of time building the core mechanics. I'll definitely check out your game :)
