Brilliant, I like the idea of having to add the number, 7 + 3 = 0 got me. Well done, very enjoyable

Thanks!  Glad you enjoyed it!

I enjoyed this. Overall it looks nice, simple design, executed well.

I would have preferred to enter the numbers at my own pace though... waiting a couple of seconds between number presses takes a little bit of the fun out of it I think.  This way, you could measure speed as factor in overall score.

For example; Enter the correct number within 1 second for +10 points, with 2 seconds for +5 points, and later than that for +2 points...

Otherwise it's a great take on the theme :-)

Thanks.  I'm glad you enjoyed it.  Maybe I could add an options page in the future.  You could turn the "metronome" off for the speed run version.  The idea behind the metronome is it forces you to have to hold the numbers in your working memory a little longer, and empty them at a prescribed rate, which I think take a little more concentration. But turning off the metronome and going for speed would be a fun option.

I figured that the delay was intentional to challenge the players ability to hold longer and longer sequences in memory for longer times. I just found myself always pressing keys before I was allowed to and it started to feel a little bothersome after a while.  Don't feel that my comments warrant changes to your design, it's good how it is :-)

Nice game, I got 1300, I wish there was an edit feature, but it might be too OP

Developer

Thanks.  1300 is a fantastic score.  1500 is a perfect game.  Ya, no edit feature, getting the timing and accuracy is part of the game.
