I'm not usually too fond of the games where the controls get messed up, but I really like how yours did it in such a controlled way. The direction you approach the control is the direction that get overwritten. Brilliant! This gives more control in the player's hands making it less frustrating than your average controller swap game. The presentation was minimal but well executed. Sound design was good, cursor felt fast enough, really have nothing to complain about. I really liked this game!

Really simple and beautifully executed game mechanic with a really nice art style and sound design. The perfect game jam game!

This was a fun little arcade game! I love the aesthetic work, and you did an excellent job of conveying the mechanics. When are you going to make a game to teach me my numbers?

Submitted

simple and clean :P funny piano sounds make me fun when my commands was a totally mess  xD keep it up o/ -Ivory-

Really creative game! Perfectly fits the "out of control" theme without feeling overbearing. It's a simple game, but it's surprisingly fun to replay.

Submitted

A super neat concept that sent my brain through a few hoops. The simplicity is what makes this really cool. Well done!

Submitted

Really fun and challenging concept! It's great trying to get a good time if you know what you're doing.

Submitted

I like your style!

The concept is simple but super consistant troughout the game which makes it feel like a very complete experience.

The gameplay was fun and i like how it made me think about how to optimize the second playtrough after seeing your highscore at the end!

Also extra points for having an element of actual teachin in the game haha!

Submitted

Really neat take on the theme, a lot of games have done switching the controls around and are often frustrating, but this one hits that sweet spot where it feel challenging instead. Great work!

Submitted

I like your game. One note I have is that it's a little annoying having to look back and forth from the controls to the character. 

Submitted

definitly one of the most fun game I've plaid in the jam, well done :D

Imo, this is by far the game that nails most on the theme "out of control".

How's that you may ask?

First of all, my strategy is to pick certain things that i will have constant control, e.g. "a" & "d", and ditch up and down to improvise with what I get.

By concept, I think being able to grasp control out of a chaotic situation while accepting things that will certainly be out of your grasp is what an "out of control" game should be.

Nice job! Vittorio Corbo!

P.S. if you want to aim for a speed run game, a restart button would be nice.

The use-last-key-bindings is a nice touch!

A nice and simple mechanic that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Well executed. I got 1:29:94 on my first try, which I feel pretty good about : )

This game was a lot of fun! A great idea, the hectic struggle to adjust to your new keys just to collect a new variation was a hectic and intense core mechanic. Good job!

Hey great game!  this was a very original idea and it was very well executed. Good job boys!

Submitted

Thank you for submitting your game to the stream! =)
I really liked your game proposal. I saw many games with this proposal to mix the keys on the keyboard, but yours used it in a simple and spectacular way! Congratulations indeed! I'll keep following!

Submitted

Great Idea and well executed, great job

I was suitably confused as could be when I first started playing, and took about two and a half minutes to complete my first attempt because of it. This is a pretty neat game! I like that the graphics are simple - it aided readability, considering I was already confused. :P I also like the general concept and way you handled the initial keybind. Was a nice little hint towards what was coming up. Nice work!
