Here's my remake of Pedal Power, but with a new coat of paint and some (hopefully) fun mechanics that (also hopefully) won't get me in a lawsuit like Nintendo got.

You can play the web built on Opera GX, sadly GMS2 really pooped the bed with their keyboard support for HTML so my typing code just flat out won't work. And rather than redo the whole system, I'm just going to call it a night and upload windows and GX

Everything in the game is made by me. Most everything was made in the jam period, though I finished the spooky music for a different project a few days before the jam.

Veri cash moni, though it could have an ending, also would be cool if ingame buttons were pressable too

Nice work. I'm terrible at typing even when it's just numbers LOL. Best I did was 21.

Well, good to know that I'm trash at 10 key. You definitely improved on the formula here! It came together very nicely, it seems quite well polished in terms of art, music, sfx, and transitions. :smile: I can't say that I find typing games all that fun, but you did the hell out of it, well done. 10/10 would type 666 to vroom again

This was a fun one! I don't have a 10 key but still managed a 26 score :) Great little concept, audio and graphics were right in line with the game.

Challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/JFLObqK2o9M

At first I tried using my numpad and it didn't work quite right, but then I quickly realized I could use my regular number keys. I screamed out loud when the enemy following was getting close to me, hahah. Very neat game! 🙂

First typing game I've seen in this Ludum Dare edition. It was fun. Also, cool music!

Cool Now I see I suck at numpad, doh :D

Nice game, even though I'm trash at it (22 is my best score)

There are several websites best psychics in los angeles and other psychic services in Los Angeles. Some of them are reputable and well-known, while others may be newer and less well-known. It's best to go with a reputable company that provides high-quality services and a good price, and Psychic Source is a good place to start.
