How does your game fit the theme?
You're missing your control keys, so you're literally "out of control". Furthermore, the rest of the keys are out of control and you need to keep them in check.

Fun little typing game!

Submitted

Looks great and is fun. It would be enough to include just a few buttons or just exclude the ones that are not 0-9 or alphabetical letters.

Submitted

Loved the key pop. Great execution of this idea.

Submitted

I really liked the game, though somewhere in the middle i pressed a control key and got a pop up in chrome that i had to close. From there on i lagged behind and everything got really out of hand haha.
Maybe control keys aren't the best to use, but they sure do add to the feeling of losing control in the game XP

Submitted

Well, it was fun. Not wery original, but EXTREMELY and surpisingly fun. I love it. (though it was somehow difficult to play because some key combinations form actual windows or chrome shortcuts...) But very good game overall.

Submitted

it look really beautiful, however work weird with another type of keyboard layout (or laguage)

Submitted

Great take on the theme! Really fun (and stressful) game with a nice amount of polish :)

Submitted

Panic inducing, but very fun take on the typical 'typing game' formula. The atmosphere you've set up here is really great as well.

Submitted

Quite fun! Definitely started to panic! If you develop this further I would remove the F keys for browser. Hard to play the game when the developer tools start opening :D

Submitted

The proposal is very cool, very different, very unique and really OUT OF CONTROL! However I think it was not a good idea to put keys like F1, F2, F3 and etc. If it were to play directly from your PC outside a browser, fine, but through the browser, it ruins the experience, however, great work!

Submitted

Neat idea. Maybe starts off a little slow.

Submitted

Tthe keys popping off is great. I got a score of 114. I ignored the function keys as the first time those popped up I hit f5, reloading the page. 

Submitted

Nice little game, I like the popping sound effects.  Game is fun for a few rounds, but the idea is cool

Submitted

Very hectic! I would maybe impliment a penalty for people (cough like me) who just started mashing their keyboard when it got too hard.

Submitted

Very cool concept.. shows how bad I am at key placement memory!

Presentation was lovely and really clear, great job!

Submitted

Cool concept and a nice game!

But using special characters and function keys is not very portable (e.g. I had to guess where the "/" was because my version of clicking it did not work)

Submitted

Cool play on Words my brother. Sadly I don't have function keys on my keyboard but it was fun nonetheless. haha

Would have been awesome if some keys forced you to continue pressing them, so that you had to jungle a bit with your fingers.

I also had the same problem that it required me to press the fn key, which made it difficult to press the F keys.

Good job on this one!

Submitted

Oh no my keys fell off!!! AAAAAA help me!!!!

Lol good game.

Submitted

pretty cool, I ran into problems with keys not matching. such as spamming backslash but it not being recognised. But I really liked the visuals and the idea.
