Interesting concept, took me some time to understand what I was doing but after playing for a while; I really enjoyed it.

Really interesting concept but i do think it needs some sort of feedback, the sound for dots and dashes are the same and pauses between letters are a bit confusing. Overall some idea of what you have actually done would be good but it is a really well thought out idea and actually surprisingly fun.
Good way to learn Morse code!
wow amazing idea. ill probably be repeating the over comments but there needs to be a count down and there needs to be some feedback if u got it right. also there needs to be a sound for the dash because its confusing when both are the dot sound
It's a really solid game, definitely works as intended. Just an idea, maybe for people that are still learning or would like a little visual feedback, implement it so that letters light up when you achieve them or it could give you feedback as to which letters you got correct.
I like it! and it is also educational, so, bonus points!
Interesting idea on display here. I do agree with Sam's comment in that I think the player should be able to see the 15 second countdown before the game ends, but other than that solid work here!
I love this concept, and believe it will be a very good way to learn and practise morse code. I suggest adding a timer for 15s so the player gets some feedback with what's happening behind the scenes, as currently it just has to hang on nothing for 15s until the game ends. Maybe you could also add a display for the player's input, but this is more subjective as obviously real telegraphers didn't have that luxury.
A nice idea, that I can see being expanded upon. By maybe having a system that detects key presses with a set speed and you can see how close you can get. But, a great idea none the less and something that's cool to see.
