Reviews for "The Essay"
Had the same freezing problem
As an earlier reviewer mentioned it does have an issue with keeping up to speed with the players own typing.
Interesting idea none-the-less.
Eh...
This would have been so good, if it made sense.
Is the speed of the white text dictated by the players WPM?
Because, well, first time playing, I barely got past "beauty and peace" and got 1min 28 seconds as my score...
Second time round, got a good few sentances past that, and got only 22 seconds.... WTF?
Still, an entertaining game.
good
but not great.
I'm not a slow typist and I could keep up for a while, but eventually I lost because I kept losing rhythm by typing punctuation and paragraphs which just vanish by themselves.
For some reason you don't need to put in the full stops or capital letters. To people who can keep up with this, those sorts of things kinda come naturally so
it seems odd that you don't need to type them.
But its a game which newgrounds doesn't seem to have a lot of so you get top marks for originality.
Could of been good
this game could of been good but it doesn't keep up with someone with a fast typing speed especially when the punctuation isn't required, i type 120 wpm, and it kept stopping and freezing at points because i would type faster then it could keep up with.
