A clever game that was fun and challenging...... and painful lol

unorthodox kinda gameplay but in a good way, also a construct user!, you got my 5 stars my man.

This game was surprisingly challenging, had me twisting my keyboard around in directions I never had before! I ran into the key rollover for one word, but managed to cheese it by using an on-screen keyboard (I played the other words legitimately, promise!).

I think the microphone functions are also interesting, although I did not have a mic to use with them. Leans more into the focus on audio this round has, so I think it was a neat idea!

Haha love the idea ! Really challenging and unique. Congrats !

I couldn't try out the microphone bit, but it's cool that you implemented that.
The gameplay was really fun and unique, and definitely challenging. Had to really stretch my hand to do those last words. Would make for a fun party game.

This is such a cool idea, I love the gameplay, although its a hard exercise on the fingers. To be honest the word "easy" wasnt that easy xD

This was a super unique idea!  I've legit never seen anything like this and it was really cool.  Great job!!

This was a fun game and idea! I also got stuck at a certain game level, but had a good time contorting my fingers till I got there. On the theme, yes you did technically make audio cues essential to play, but can’t help but say that it felt like a way to pushing that in via technicality, since the actual mechanic of what we were doing was less to do with audio (I’d probably have just as much fun if the word to write out was up top of the screen). Still, had a fun time playing!

Fun and physically challenging game. Had to get to my desktop to finish it as my laptop didn't seem to able to handle all the key press combinations.

Clever idea and surprisingly hard. Maybe I just have small hands, but I found some of them close to impossible. Haha.

My keyboard only registers three letter keys at once, so I had to do the ol' switcheroo. After playing through I really enjoyed it, but wish the audio cues were more incorporated. It felt more like a game idea with audio cues slapped onto it than a game based off that theme. However, it was very well made, so good job.

Great idea for a game! Small technical issue, not a big deal, but I got stuck on the fifth word because my keyboard didn't register the combination of keys. I could only press 3/4 of the required keys. The game would've been just as fun with text. Would've been nice to tie in the audio a bit more - maybe you have to press the keys to the beat of the music. Overall really cool.

Really neat game idea! I had a lot of fun trying to put the right fingers on the right positions and the difficulty curve was greatly designed. There could be more polish, for example some sounds when pressing the keys, but overall, an awesome entry!

lol, I had to try 3 different keyboards before I could actually play.  I thought most keyboards had a limit of 6 simultaneous inputs.  Apparently all of mine are 3...  But I finally got it!

Interesting take on the theme.  Good use of the audio.  Definitely couldn't play without it.  Well done.

My hand hurts now, thanks. I may or may not have cheated to finish the game. Neat idea for the theme, I had fun playing it.

It had small bugs. but, other than that it was a lot fun actually. It fits greatly the theme. Great job!
