I love the concept here! I wish there had been more sound in this game -- little wiggles when the keys are about to jump, and jubilant pops and whooshes as they fly free; they can squirm and complain as they are clicked back into place; and the clacking of the typist resumes.

I'm curious: how much of the manifesto string did you load into this game? Could I potentially retype the entire thing word-for-word?

Considering the time constraints, and our extant mode of production, I would say you made an excellent game. Great work!

Haha Thanks! Unfortunately we didn't include the whole manifesto (we were a little out of practice, didn't even get to include the sounds we had planned ;), but I'd really like to break the whole thing up in to chapters and have the game mechanics reflect the chapters, right now we only have a little bit.

We also want the keys to taunt you as they flee. Right now it's a bit too tedious, we've been thinking of ways to "optimize" the typing and focus more on repairing the keyboard, like perhaps you only need to type the first letter of every word.
