It took some time for me to get hang of it but it was fun. :) This could maybe work on tablet?
I've tried several times, but never managed to contain the dark.
Th game is fun :)
tough, probably because I'm exausted, the "random switch" noise isn't very pleasant.
Also, at first I though you had to hold the keys.
Great job!
Thanks for the feedback ! yeah a know the audio is to high in pitch.
Really nice simple idea and fun to play :)
Great! I'm happy you like it
AMAZING! LOVED IT! Such a cool concept it really got me going!
Thanks MeGustaElPan!
Had fun playing it, good job!!
I'd like to think I'm pretty decent at typing, but holding two random keys at the same time made it infinitely harder for my brain to process, haha. I think you've got a really interesting mechanic here, and I'd love to see a post-jam version!
Glad you like it! Haha yes it is a different way to interact with your keyboard
This was a really challenging game but I had a great time playing it. It almost felt like typing of the dead, and I wonder if using words rather than letters would work, although it was great as it was. From the first level I thought it was going to be rather easy but I was definitely wrong as I entered the third level and the barriers kept on breaking. Great job!
Thank you for playing! Glad you like it, I like your game too.
Hey! Really good game! I wonder what it would be like on a controller. Or if you stuck to keyboard I wonder what other sort of challenges you could incorporate with more dev time, like, you have to spell words with your barriers. Anyway, nice engaging game!
Thanks for playing! Glad you like it!
Yeah, I think that more things can be developed with this mechanic, unfortunately, I don't have a controller :(
Thanks!
Very clever idea and neat execution! It put my brain upside down, I must admit.
Glad you like it!
I really liked the concept of the game! nice :)
Thanks!
i really liked this game! especially because i once worked on something (vaguely) similar with some people and you solved a lot of the problems we had really shitty solutions to rather well :D i just love the controls! this has a lot of potential :D
Glad you like it!
Thanks for playing, also if you want to know how the input system works let me know :)
that's really nice :D it wasnt as much of an input problem as much as it was a design problem with our team, and it's been a while since we have worked on that project. but still thank you so much for the offer :D
Awesome game!
Cool concept. Super tense, but still fun. Nice work!
Thanks! Glad you like the concept
Great concept. Challenging and fun. Well done!
Glad you like the concept
Cool concept and the graphics, music, and gameplay are great
Thanks!
Really cool concept! Had to constantly look down at the keyboard when the letters changed; kept me on edge (in a good way).
Some of the sounds were a little harsh though (when the darkness breaks your lines) but that may have been your intention.
Fantastic music track too!
Glad you like it! Also thanks for the advice with the sound maybe is too high in pitch
Was a bit too hard for me but it was really cool to play :)
Thanks! Maybe I should make the learning curve easier
