This was fun! It took me 10-20 seconds to figure out I had to type the keys I saw, for some reason I wanted to click on the bugs instead. But once I understood the controls, the game was fun. Sound design and art are really good, and the keys popping up when you click them is very good feedback for the player, I liked that a lot. Well done :)

a really nice game, with nice effects and cool feedback sounds. great job!
That was really fun. I love how the goblins cover the key so you can't see what it is. Had to keep looking at my keyboard to get the correct key.
Absolutely fantastic!
Fits the theme perfectly, graphics and art style are great, music is so chill, sound effects are bang on, and the gameplay is fun!
The anti-key-spamming mechanic where wrong keys are tied to your lives is very clever; it rewards proper typing and play without feeling too stressful by being tied to a timer.
I can usually type pretty well without looking at the keyboard but this made me realize I can only do that when I’m typing full words…
Perfect game!
P.S. I stayed on the start screen for way too long just listening to the music and tapping keys. Very satisfying.
Okok props for the clever take on the theme haha that felt real punchy and fun! Just wish I was a better typist :P Congrats!
I love when people take meta decisions on the theme. Out of Control. Good one!
Also the point when the control key slid and they started coming out of it, I almost fell laughing from my chair. :D
I like it, it's really nice and polished. It misses something to give it more replayability, but still, good game
Well polished typing game :D (Altough having my z and y keys swapped made it more difficult for me haha)
Well polished, I like the atmosphere and interesting take on the writing games.
Haha why didn‘t I thought of that? Very original concept and the gremlins are so cute. We’ll done!
It was so polished and cute! It made me laugh and I played through several times :)
