Really great. I learned to appreciate what we have on our keyboards nowadays.

It's quite a stretch for the theme to be honest, though this was a funny submission. It really does help you appreciate modern keyboards.

The scale of the window made it hard for me to read the text to copy down. Maybe if the font was crisper it could help as well.

Reminds me of my Mavis Beacon lessons from long ago- my only complaint is that the font you use for the text you're supposed to copy doesn't match the font on the typewriter, and I couldn't zoom in/resize the window on it to see that the first line included a comma- not a period. A satisfying clickety clack of the typerwriter would have been a nice addition too.

Great music, excellent choice not to let you backspace and correct. Start over! I could only make it through 4 copies before I had to go on coffee break and quit my memo-taking job. (NOT VERY) Fun stuff! Super polished game, and well done.

Fun? Debatable. Entertaining? Absolutely! The music adds a nice touch to the monotonous frustration and the atmosphere of the whole thing is very enjoyable.

Lorem ipsum... oops sorry muscle memory. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
Cool little game, I'm guessing there's no end condition? Sorry but I didn't want to type that much to find out, lol.

It looks really promising, but unfortunately I cant play it. It would be nice if you publish it for Mac and/or WebGL.

I spent 8 hours typing nonsense on a keyboard. Then I came home, and started playing Quota, it is a fun little game, about typing nonsense on a keyboard

Well i've now come to realisation that i have an addiction to backtracking...
A nice game to learn how to type without making errors, probably a good tool to work on your typing speed. To make it a bit harder you could add a manual end of line on a key, as it is currently done automatically if your word is too long for the rest of the line.
