I laughed at the beginning with the music :o.

You should add a restart button, or a way to die at the beginning it took me 3 times to learn how this game really works, so i needed each time to quit the game and reopen it.

Its fun :P

Thanks krashja!
The zero key restarts the levels, and the backspace key returns you to the start screen. I'm glad you had fun!

Haha that music! Also very nice use of the 2 button theme, it was fun.

An interesting concept, a little bit like Typing of the Dead meets Mario. The graphics are functional, only the music was borderline between lulz and getting on my nerves really really fast.

Thumbs up for the concept of teaching how to type.

Ha, I love it. That music was glorious, and you took the programmer art in stride. Despite all the silliness, this is actually a really cool concept. I don't think I've ever played a typing platformer before. If you ever revisit this concept, I'd love to check it out!

The game does strive in the comedy department a bit XD It's a very unique concept of a game!
The music, though funny, it can get a bit annoying! o:

The music for this game is so on point.

Gameplay is a good idea (it would be really nice if you could die and automatically go back!)

It's refreshing to play a game that doesn't infringe on any copyrights.

Haha that music. Kind of wish there was a version with actual words to type, I like typing games :)

Well I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said :P. Couple bugs I found though: backspace makes the glorious music disappear, and if you press the second key followed by the first you lose your jump (intended?)
