Very funny. The typing was a bit annoying because I had to wait for the letters to get to the bottom. I often pressed a button just too early and had to press it again. Why not just let the player press the button as it appeared on the screen, and just increase their falling speed? Also, it would be great to have more visual aids to tell me I was running low on power. I was too busy paying attention to the typing and suddenly I fell asleep. Maybe yawning sounds as power reached certain thresholds?

I really like that it's not only the \"guitar hero\" mechanic (even though that works very well). The fact that you have to do multiple different things is a cool idea (like a bunch of different mini games). The controls are a bit frustrating though. For example I didn't understand how to turn of the kettle, and my house just burned down! Also, I didn't understand how to stop doing something (coding, making coffee, etc.).\n\nGraphics are neat, and overall the game is very well made. A little more polish on the controls and other small tweaks and this would have been a top entry in my opinion. Still; a very neat little game, well done :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"kalyrical","author_uid":"1034222","time":"2017-08-01T21:39:17Z","epoch":1501623557,"modified":1501623557,"text":"HAHA so meta!

I ran back to the computer and got back to it but the code was all tangled up, I thought the fatigue must be playing tricks on me. I hastily finished the game and submitted it with satisfaction. I scored 4615 and got good reviews.\n\nCongratulations on the game. The idea is cool. It really tests your multitasking and touch typing skills. One thing though - I see it that the UI says to press space to stop coding, but I barely noticed it. It is displayed only when you are already concentrated on the letters which makes it almost impossible to notice.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Zachary Shah","author_uid":"1045368","time":"2017-08-02T00:57:34Z","epoch":1501635454,"modified":1501635454,"text":"Interesting concept...
