Wow, such goose, so ferocious.
I did't notice that I play as the goose at first.

My only complaint is that I found myself sometimes typing the 3rd or 4th word while I really wanted to type the 1st.

Other than that, great job, very fun!

Haha! That's awesome! I love the art style here, and the gameplay is pretty well done! I'm not so sure about the genres though. I've played a lot of typing games, and the second genre is pretty commonly used.

Nice Art and Music! Doesn't necessarily fit the the theme but its a functional good looking typing game.

Very funny and a nice concept. I now have a new-found fear of geese.

Funny idea, quite tricky for a slow typer like me. :D I like the duckhunt style visuals with a sense of nostalgia, flavoured with a comedic theme hehe. Good work overall ehtd!

This was surprisingly fun, but really really hard! The longer words were hopeless to type fast. Anyway, well done!

Amazing. Just a perfectly executed succinct little game. I wish there was some score (# of words used, time?) so I could try to beat my best score over and over. Regardless, I had a lot of fun with it

Awesome! I wish there was a timer so I could try to beat my best scores, but I had a ton of fun chasing down that human!

Nice bit of humor. Liked the combination of typing and chasing. I do wish there was a way to stop typing one word and type another word instead. Loved the animation on the ~~prey~~human

I love the art style and the energetic music. If you expand upon the game maybe have different levels of difficulty. Maybe I'm just terrible at typing, but it seemed really hard to me. You did a great job on this and it's really funny.

The end-game animation was perfect, the music fit in wonderfully, and the game was legitimately funny. Well done! I did find it a little easy, not being punished for incorrect keystrokes, but I had a great experience nonetheless.

I love the concept of this, made me chuckle :) Turns out I'm not very good at typing! The art style is excellent – there's something very charming about it. I think it would help if there were a few more different words, though; I found myself typing the same words a lot, which made it feel a tad repetitive.

Really funny concept with great pixel art style! Don't want to sound like i'm bragging but as a fast typer game ended really quickly, having difficulty levels (higher the difficulty, faster the words would come) would really be great! Really cute entry nevertheless :heart:

I started this comment saying that after many tries, I couldn't get that human. But then I looked back at the image at the top of this page, and figured I *had* to see the victory animation, so I tried once more, and made it! Guess the game was actually good at improving typing skills — albeit for a limited number of words ;p

Fun application of the theme :) Great artwork too, both visually and audibly
