Having to watch all the rows of words simultaneously makes this more challenging than other typing games I've played, and the art is brilliant.  Great job :thumbsup: \n\nAs you noted above, it's eerily quiet.  I understand that you ran out of time, but I think you should definitely revisit this post-jam to add some sound-effects and a backing track.  It would make a world of difference.\n\nI also think that the difficulty ramps up too slowly.  I think I could probably have made it much further than I did (Level 2), but the early levels weren't challenging enough to keep me playing.","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":906170,"author_name":"Szieberth Adam","author_uid":"szieberth-adam","epoch":1673352165,"text":":heart: ","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":909150,"author_name":"MaximBegunov","author_uid":"maximbegunov","epoch":1673383572,"text":"Like the artstyle!

A minor nitpick - I'm not sure if there was a way to confirm the menu to go to the next level via a keyboard, but having to use a mouse in a typing game is a bit awkward :sweat_smile:","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":909179,"author_name":"Devilsmile","author_uid":"devilsmile","epoch":1673383756,"text":"It can be a cool commercial educational game for kids!:)","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":909227,"author_name":"Steelfeathers","author_uid":"steelfeathers","epoch":1673384261,"text":"@kenneth-dd That is an excellent idea!

Pretty annoying bug.\n- When remove the last obstacle in the level, level should just speed up\n- In general \u2013 I liked the game, even though it was pretty boring (dropped after 3 levels) because of too simple and  monotonous gameplay. Some bonuses on the way could help with that.\n\nI also would recommend you to add a link to Itch in the section with links, because a lot of people will look their first (as I did), I barely found your link on the description page.
