Damn that pressure built up quick, very fun. My hands hurt now haha

Developer

Haha yeah we really wanted to hit that condensed arc of intensity. Thanks a bunch!

Great game, really well executed too! Only the spaces between words don't have feedback, but otherwise it's neat.

Developer

Thank you! Agreed – that's still tripping me up when I play. Maybe the spaces could just be ignored or there could be some kind of highlight of the space itself that emphasizes when you've typed it / that you need to type it.

A great way of interpreting the theme. I was surprised how much fun I had typing. The music and dynamic crowd cheers certainly egged me on as I attempted to do the same for the runner with my typed cheers. Great game, good job!

Developer

Thanks a bunch! Always so satisfying to see that multiplier effect when dropping in the right sounds or music into a project.

Really great idea. Enjoyed playing it.

 One thing I would have liked is some kind of indicator if we made a mistake. I didn't know if I should backspace, or space is also a character do I need to type? And one major improvement would be the speed of the run could be maintained until the next word is fully revealed. The runner slows down before the next phrase is fully revealed. So she is always slowing down regardless of our input. 

Anyone who likes touch typing will surely enjoy this game loads. Great idea and great work. kudos :D

Thanks for checking out our game! Totally agree some more feedback in the typing would help a lot, there are times where I'm not sure if I've hit space or not. Maybe it could just be more forgiving with spaces and let you skip them. And yeah, that's a good thought for balancing the game around not penalizing you until you've seen the full word. Really appreciate your feedback.
