It's a neat game. It could definately become a game that many people can use to practice doing math quickly. Maybe a new game for schools to dive into? I could see the potential in that
controls are surprisingly juicy for what you'd normally think is a pretty dry concept haha. good job on making it satisfying :)
feels really nice to play
I have no idea how you made math juicy but as someone who normally enjoys math quite a bit I'm very impressed! Clever and unique idea made in great way! Good job! :D
(Managed to beat hard on 256 seconds, no idea if that is good or not hahah!)
OMG I LOVE IT SO MUCH <3333
Very clever take on the theme. Simple idea executed very nicely.
OMG! Congrats on doing this on pico-8. I tried it once and hated it haha. Very polished and love the art!
Yo this is so clever. Also a good teaching mat.
I liked the idea and it could easily become a game for educational purposes (and I don't mean it in a bad way, quite the opposite). I liked the calculator visuals, but I think it would help if the sound for each input was more "button like", because based on the theme it felt out of place. Something that I think that would add to the theme is if the player was seeing the calculator from the inside (even if the numbers weren't mirrored, of course). Good job
Nice game! I love math so this was something that suits me well. Something that I noticed, though, is that you can get repeated questions. I think it would be nice if none of the questions per-test were the same (and I initially thought randomly generated questions would be neat as well).
Would love to be able to give answers using keyboard! Overall good work, though maybe I would suggest switching the button sound effect for something else.
I really liked it since I really like to test my mental maths skills. Well Done!
i hate mental math so this wasn't fun LOL but i like the idea and it looked really cute. i like the feeling of the mouse control being taken away from you when the numbers are being input, feels disorienting in a cool way. I really like the screen shake for button presses :-)
Great game! I noticed a bit of imprecision during clicking but other than that it's a very nice game!
cool idea
A cleaver idea.
So that's how you make maths fun! One thing though: I don't know if it's just my luck, but the questions repeat very often. In my one 10-question run, I had the same question three times.
Very creative! Fun to play! Very educational!
5 stars in all the categories!
My math teacher will be proud. Even though it’s so simple, it feels very well-polished. One part of my brain knows I’m just doing math, but another part of my brain just keeps doing it
Very charming and simple game with great execution
