The idea is great, unlucky for me I have a non-english keyboard layout and have a hard time finding the punctuation and stuff. Nontheless I enjoyed the the experience.

Typing game is already hard for me. Making it timed and someone randomly type something in the mix is nightmare for me.

Nice game anyway.

Submitted

Very original idea! I play screeching as the monkey does. Really love the atmosphere that makes a frustration-inducing game very casual to play.

Submitted

Haha... I loved this game! Great job!

Really fun game and original idea! The monkey's interactions with the player were really funny and kept the game interesting. I also loved his shriek whenever you made a mistake. There was quite a big bug that meant you couldn't type some punctuation or use the capital  letter letter button (although you could still use shift), making some words impossible. However, overall the game was still very enjoyable and felt well polished, great job!

RIP brain cells 

Loved it though

Love it, super infuriating when the monkey takes away control right as I finish a word, but that only makes me want to play more! well done!

Submitted

...but not infinite time - lol ;)

So cute! Very novel, very unique! I love it! Great job!

This game is delightful. My favorite so far, and I didn't even do that well! 

The way this game plays with the player is so nice, I find myself getting more laughs out of the mistakes than frustrations. Good job all, I'll be following you in the hopes of more great work to come!

I was confused when I had to hit Space to get to the next line and instead kept trying to hit Enter. Also, the monkey messing up my typing right as I hit space wasn't nice. :(

Developer

Yeah we were thinking of implementing a form of "monkey insurance", where the monkey can't mess with you on the last character of a word. Unfortunately, we ran out of time (and sanity), so we didn't add it in. Glad to see someone saw the same problem as us though!

This is honestly an incredible game, definitely one of the top 100, Great Job!

Thanks so much! Glad to hear you liked it!

Submitted

Graphics, sounds, concept, gameplay, everything is wonderful. Good job :) . It was very satisfactory, especially the key sounds.

Developer(+1)

Glad you liked it! Our sound designer spent a lot of time on the typing sounds so I'm glad you noticed them!

Submitted

I really liked having to constantly decide whether to go back and correct lines and improve my accuracy at the cost of my time. Great risk/reward mechanic!

Beautiful presentation - UI, animations, art and sound firing on all cylinders over here. 

Wonderful lil game, y'all should be proud. Congrats on finishing it!

Developer

Thanks! Glad to see you liked the main mechanic!

Fun and interesting concept, but I personally found it very difficult, even on the easy setting.

Developer

Noted, will make changes to the difficulty in the next version.
