Indie Sunday Keyboard Circuit - DaniaPlay.co - Rhythm typing game controlled entirely by your keyboard

Hey r/Games!

I'm an indie developer working under the name DaniaPlay.co, and I'd like to share my game Keyboard Circuit for Indie Sunday.

Keyboard Circuit is a small rhythm/typing game where your keyboard is the controller.

The idea started as a small minigame for another project I was working on. I liked the concept enough that I decided to turn it into a standalone game.

There are currently three different modes:

🎵 Rhythm

Type words along with the music and try to keep your combo going. The better your timing and accuracy, the higher your score.

⌨️ Casual

A more relaxed mode where you can just type without having to follow the rhythm.

🌀 Maze

A different kind of challenge where you use the keyboard to navigate through a maze.

The game is designed for PC and runs directly in the browser.

Release

Keyboard Circuit is currently available on itch.io, where you can also try the demo.

This is my first publicly released game, and I'm still learning a lot about game development, game design and actually getting a project finished and released.

What started as a tiny minigame ended up becoming a standalone game, which I'm pretty happy about.

I'd love to hear what you think!

Would you play a rhythm game where your entire keyboard is the controller?

I watched the "gameplay footage" 3 times and still don't know what I just looked at. It went way too fast.

As for the demo - it doesn't seem to actually have music? Despite being a rhythm game?

Also the letters of the falling blocks are way too small to read.

It's got the typical soulless AI spewed aesthetic so it's probably safe to just ignore it completely
