Nice stuff :)

Really nice effects; it felt really punchy.

Not sure if I'm any good at it alone though :sweat_smile:

Tobias needs to look where he's going. I managed to beat it, but I'm not sure how my keyboard felt about it. Fun little game, would do better with some goofy sfx.

Fun and crazy hard! I had initial issues with keypresses not being detected, but it worked after a while. It would have been cool to see "Tobias" move on to more traps!

It's handy that I've got a mechanical keyboard.

The game is very simple. I like the colors. This can be turned into a hypercasual game however you might need to make the core gameplay more "casual" friendly :-)

I discovered some strange shortcuts playing that game. Congratulations Rofli! Simple and brilliant.

My keyboard just melted, and Tobias died anyway. Would've been cool to see more traps, or some random effects related to the actual keys pressed ( Left of keyboard pushes left side etc )

Couldnt save him :/ Maybe add timer how long you survived?

Simple conceptual game for 30 seconds - no more, no less. Simple graphics, primitive(in a good way) gameplay. While tried to save the Tobias I paused game, opened itch.io source code, opened some programs on my computer. He died at 12th second.

The visual effects on the menu and in response to key presses were pretty cool

The gameplay seemed a bit too simple and the game too short. It would be nice if there was something that would change how much button mashing I want to do.
(The rate of button mashing that is possible might also vary from keyboard to keyboard)

The game is really stylish and attractive! Difficult to play, though a pretty simple challenge. I noticed the timer (A little small) in the corner of the screen, and I assume that something would happen when the timer runs down, but I couldn't last that long. Overall a very beautiful and reasonably unique entry.

Hahaha it took me a while to figure out what the game was about but it was pretty funny! Shame there's no audio, but the presentation was very good otherwise.
