I'm on MAC OSX using Safari.

I get "something went wrong messages" I think it happens when I enter characters using upper case (BOOST does not work, but boost does)

and it also seems I have to spam the Enter key a few times, which makes it impossible for the very quick timing windows.

These bugs make it unplayable, BUT I really like the concept! even with the bugs I think it's really fun, and a great idea. I would love to play it again after the bugs got worked out.

For what it's worth i have a few ad blocker extensions, so idk if that affects things.

I'll come back and vote if the bugs get worked on, I don't want to give it bad votes because I think it has a lot of potential.

@toiletsnakes Hey! Thanks for giving it a shot~
I'll be honest, I didn't really have time to text the game properly, but having to spam the Enter key is a totally new one: I'll see if I can figure it out (along with all the other bugs), and I'll let you know when it's slightly more playable~

@SalamiChild i think that actually spamming it did nothing now that I think about it.
Anyways thanks =)

Hmm i see that this game has a lot of potential.
After playing 10 or so rounds: boost the start, left turn DEAD. Next turn boost, left, right, boost dead.
So i cant really seem to do any progress? I also cant seem to find any use for the repair? While i can still fill it up? :confused:

Interesting concept, but it often just came down to typing the first colored word I saw. It might be better if the timers were slower but there were some cases where going one direction could cause you to lose.
