Co-ordinating between those keys is super hard!\r\rWatching them drift was nice and relaxing (until of course you realize where they're drifting. \r\rMight be interesting if you offer a random start position mode (for the letters you control).\r\rAnd then there's the option that I'd love to see which would be customization of which keys you use and how many keys you have to control (minimum 4 of course).\r\rMy best score was 5. \r\rThanks for making this!"},{"author_name":"swedishbacon","author_uid":"38769","time":"Dec 7, 2014 @ 10:24pm","epoch":1417990740,"text":"This game is intense! :)\rNice!"},{"author_name":"ming_tea","author_uid":"17824","time":"Dec 7, 2014 @ 11:05pm","epoch":1417993200,"text":"This is actually pretty great, and I chuckled every time I got WASD the Fuck??!!

I think the endless version you have here is maybe too hard to really get into (at least for me), maybe you could have separate puzzles\/levels.
