Wow, really something different here with the typing and moving at same time, sometimes a bit challenging but fun :)

Nice game interesting concept not a big fan writing while moving around with mouse =p.
I LOVE the idea, but it is a bit difficult to manage dodging and typing at the same time! Maybe if a sword lasted longer than a swing, it would've gone a bit better?
I actually thought the letters you typed in would always give you a status effect based on some algorithm just because I happened to type "Adreinn uwu" which ended up giving me wind! Could be a neat idea, but I'm not sure if that's what ya want.
I would love to see it expanded upon once it gets polished a bit more, you did a great job!
Really Cool! Interesting concept! Game is exceedingly difficult. We did get better as we played more and more, so maybe an actual tutorial level would help alleviate the early part of the learning curve! Which- you know. It's a game jam. That is not always possible! This was a fantastic submission though and we hope you expand the concept into something more!
It's a really cool idea, but it definitely is very intensely difficult. I can see the huge amounts of potential here though. I think the thing that would help the most is to be able to use a sword multiple times when you make it? Like each time you swing a letter goes away, something like that. Would make it a lot more forgiving to slower/newer players.
Nice mechanic. Sometimes cannot write or delete the words so i have to relaunch the game.
Anyway gj ^^
as someone who sucks at typing this game was tough but pretty cool nonetheless :D
Very cool idea and it was executed well! I think the game could use a bit of balancing, as the enemies feel a bit too fast and I think fire felt like the clear best choice, but otherwise the game is a lot of fun
Cool idea! A bit of feedback, the enemies felt way too fast - I can tell you want it to feel frantic but I think you can keep that effect even with slower enemies. I'd also like a more j u i c y death - some particles and a shorter slow effect would be good. More j u i c e for killing enemies would be fun too. Very neat concept!
This is a super cool concept! As someone who's terrible at typing, it took some getting used to, but it was a lot of fun. I'd like to see this concept get expanded with more words and enemy types. I also liked the art, I'm a sucker for this kind of neon colour palette. I found the movement to be a tad sluggish, though.
Hard one, could help if the first few enemies were a little slower to get used to typing :D Enjoyed it!
Really cool, the concept is the most unique I have seen in this jam so far and the game is a lot of fun. It is very hard though! I would have appreciated a health bar of some sort :D
Great game, really unique concept - really fun to try. Juice and visuals are great too!
