Great game. Pretty simple (but unique) idea implemented and polished very well. The art is really pretty, and the music is good as well. Good job!

Very very polished, and also a very polished idea. Never thought u could make mini games but play them all at the same time. Has a great "crescendo". Thank you!

This is very very solid. Very creatively crafted and I like that it keeps us engaged a lot. Apart from the positives, after a certain point my keys don't work? Like I was pressing the letters showing up but they weren't going green. Happened twice. Really solid game however, well done!

It's a good game, but it's hard to control everything. I also liked the art :smiley:

So cool ! I found the idea interesting, I wasn't very good at it but it was fun! Although, as I am french my keyboard is on azerty, and I would sometimes get lost because I couldn't find the right keys ! It's also a bit hard to play, so many things to look at ! But Great !

Fun game, love the art, music and the concept. Game starts off at a nice and easy to pick up pace, and as soon as you get the hang of it, gets really challenging. Really nice work :)

I had a lot of fun because there are a total of four games all combined to a single that and that four games are all exactly related to the theme! Liked the graphics and the music too! Nice job! :smile:

I love the Art. It seems really fun, but it was very difficult for me to concentrate on everything. But you definetly got "keep it alive" going! :)

A pretty great game!

I love the fact that you have to multitask in order to win, it's very challenging but very funny!


The art is awesome, and the music and sound effetcs are great!


Well made game!

Game ran and worked well. It was clear what I had to do and it definitely got stressful as it sped up. It was a bit slow in the beginning though. Having to click the pot definitely makes it harder to keep up with the typing! Thanks for the game

The only the I'll add is on my computer it was about twice as hard because for some reason the game wouldn't capture my keyboard correctly so every time I jumped with space my browser when flying down the page. That definitely made the game hard:)

Hilarious game! I loved the management stuff, the DOS art style, and goofy midi music. Good themeing, gets hard quick. Great work!

This hurt my brain, but in a good way. I feel like this could possibly be improved by making the game control with keyboard only, instead of keyboard and left mouse. This is a really good adaptation for the theme. This game is hilarious and I enjoyed it a lot, thank you for making it!
