smeh
this game has potential but it doesnt seem to pick up all my keystrokes. and something funny keps happening by the punctuations.
Reviews for "The Essay"
game can't keep up.
This would be extremely fun, but for one problem. Once I really start getting on a roll and tying extremely fast, the game will simply not register that i pressed a key, causing me to continue typing and causing the letters to fill faster at no fault of my own.
Disappointing
Great game, but it really disappoints me that the smallest lag generated by my computer and the speeding up of the letters turning white causes it to misregister my typings and I cannot display my full ability. I took a typing class, and I know it's not me because I hit the simplest keys (asdfjkl;) and it would miss while I kept going for the next second or two. I don't know how you can fix the problem, but it's sad that such a simple game can't be enjoyed fully by everyone.
GREAT Idea! But...
System needs a great deal of work. Right now it can't really keep up with me, and I'd definitely change the way punctuation is right now.
good concept, however...
needs work on the punctuation (periods, commas, quotation marks etc) to really make it work.... also, instead of just an essay, why not some famous poems from Edgar Poe or other classic famous written works of art....better yet, make the words form images and/or words of whatever the text is about (such as bird, plane, pig, etc)
