Two players - One Keyboard. Battle your friends over access to ALL the letters! Biting and scratching allowed. Put away all sharp objects before you start.

Type the letters highlighted on the buttons with your keyboard to make them grow. The first player to grow his button 4 times to full size wins the game!

Attack opponent's button by pressing the letters that appear in the corners!

Made with Unity3D, http://www.bfxr.net/, Ableton Live, Paint.Net.

nice game, though i didnt have a second player, but i get where you were coming from.

This is awesome! Can't wait to play with friends!

Simple and elegant :) Why do letters appear at the corners sometime ? Can't figure out what it changes in the game.

Simple and very cool idea - would be fun with a second player.
Liked the added special attack! :D
Very good game.

awesome idea. I'd play this with friends, tourney style if I had some over right now. Seems simple and fun

Loved the sound effects and the concept. Fun idea and well executed.

Played with my Girlfriend, we're now broken up.

Just Kidding, it was really awesome with two people though.

It must be fun when play with friends, lol

I think the game is like a toy, it provokes many interaction between players. The right side player might get a F, which is in the territory of left player. The left player might cover the key from being pressed. These things are not visible on screen.
Great job.

Lots of fun with roommate. Could have gotten way more vicious.

Good job! Have to try with someone

This game leads to real life fighting! Great concept!

candlesan14 Dec 2015, 05:40

Could see how this would be really fun with a friend.

BoUnDtOtHeEaRtH14 Dec 2015, 06:02

Makes me wish I had friends to play this with

Cool idea! Oh, if only we had friends. ;D My rating is taking into account an ideal scenario, so good scoring.

Quite fun to play with friends! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/XuTLfsOkf7k

Interesting idea. Lots of shoving in our two player match.

KilliganIndustries17 Dec 2015, 02:03

Love this! Bloop on a keyboard.

DrFallos17 Dec 2015, 08:10

Liked event when you damage your enemie's growing! Good idea for simple playing with friends!

richardboegli17 Dec 2015, 08:25

Good fun. Lots of chaos with hands crossing over each other.

Good local multiplayer game. It works well and it is fun, nice job! It is funny to play, I like it ;-)

Nice idea, this would be great for teaching people to type.

The only thing is the lack of space when playing with friends, can't have more than two hands trying to reach different buttons in such a rush. Nice idea, tho!
