A delightfully charming exploration of a version of history we are only just beginning to comprehend. I really enjoyed the rhythmic typing once I got the hang of it as well. Stellar work, would cross the Rubicon for.
Trailer, for your viewing pleasure :D
haha long time that I saw a typing game.
good job!!
Ha, this game actually surprised me. I really liked your uique idea and i think it fit really well with the game. Great work:))
I could use this to learn how to write by all ten. Creattive idea. And i liked the joke in the reason why the game fits the theme.
This was really fun actually! Especially later in the game where it goes so fast that you barely have any time to react. I quite liked it :)
Lol this game was really silly and premise had me going alone for quite a while. I also really enjoyed out pure personal bias for enjoying rhythm games and enjoying typing speed tests... The concept was super original and funny and I enjoyed the gameplay a lot as well!
Some feedback:
Me personally, I would've liked it if a beat wasn't skipped after every word. At higher speeds it might get a bit overwhelming, but I was thinking if the beat wasn't skipped but the next word was showed to the side somewhere, I'd feel like I wasn't pausing awkwardly after each word.
I think the dice mechanic didn't really do much for me. I loved the gameplay itself, but didn't really feel the integration of rolling the dice while playing.
While I enjoyed the gameplay a lot, I felt that the losing vs winning didn't feel super satisfying. For one thing, making a mistake then having to play the rest of the word in shame with no way of saving it felt kinda bad, and also going a win-kill streak didn't end up feeling super satisfying. Maybe the vibe was to go for the delaying the inevitable which matches the theme, but I think there's something to be done to kinda make the game feel more juicey and satisfying when winning (Especially when getting a perfect 6 dice!)
Awesome feedback! Thanks :*
Very original and clever premise! This sort of cool, bizarre game is why I love game jams.
The idea is so stupid that I love it, I had a great time playing it. It took me a while to understand what the dice had to do with it, but as soon as I started playing well I caught on quickly. It's super addictive with a simple but well executed concept, as a Jam game it's perfect <3
interesting to type to the beat.
the drum sound got a bit repetitive, but it did its job very well. some letter felt like cheating, like the letter ae, which i don’t have on my keyboard
i like the pixel art, and the way they wobbled to the beat. the dice were nice to look at too :)
Is there really a letter ae in there? Sheesh, I need to check that out. Thanks for the comment.
Hebræos is the word. The list consists of 1000 words so I've missed that. For some reason there's also the letter T 🗿
This is fun, addictive, and I love how weird the idea is. Also the cover art is cool and I wish there were more images like that in the actual game.
Typing to the rhythm felt very fun!
found this a very funny game over all! i like the idea of gaining dice as a reward to get better odds to win
Fun idea, maybe add a translation of the latin words somewhere and it will also be slightly educational.
Nice simple game!
Was expecting this game to just be a joke but was actually a nifty rythmn game
im proud
bwoy am i good at it
