Infinity Monkey Autocorrect by andyman404

[raw]
made by andyman404 for LD34 (JAM)
This funk-filled game explores what would happen to the Infinity Monkey/Typewriter Theorem if it had a commercially-biased autocorrect. The game submits to a growing body of monkey-submitted literature.

This 2-button game (for #CloneJamNathalie and #LDJAM #LD34) hooks into Google's search suggestion service to come up with some of its autocorrections.

Instructions:
Press left shift and right shift to make the monkey's hands hit buttons.
Simultaneously hold down left shift and right shift to submit the manuscript.

I hereby present you with the banana of geniousness,

A few drawer diverted under a drake. Discount tire diverted..

I made a spam poetry generator a while back that you might find interesting, though the execution, in comparison, is sloppy you might find it interesting. http://ww.spoetry.org

Thanks for an awesome experience!

This is super great! There's now a competition at our office to make the best manuscript - and what does the "best" mean? I don't know, but I DO know I'm trying to write Sonic the Hedgehog fanfic with these monkey hands!

Very original concept, well-executed. Audio and visuals were lovely, with nice little details such as the poop on the keyboard. A neat interactive experience!

Interesting experience, especially if you mash the buttons quickly (I guess just like monkey would do) :)
Really amazed by how polished this entry is. Congrats! :)
