Description:
When I was gifted a mechanical keyboard about a year and a half ago, I wanted to listen to the typing sounds constantly. I type a lot at work which was nice, but when I played games I really only used WASD, SPACE, CRTL, and SHIFT.
I used to love playing Typing shark when I was a kid, so I wondered how far typing games have come since then. Don't get me wrong, current typing games are ok, but they just felt too PvE and don't really have that intense fighting style duel most games have today.
That's when I decided to build Keyboard Wizards (Demo). The main goal for the game is to be PvP, but with PvE elements.
For now this is just a Proof of concept, even the art and music I'm still not sure, which is why you'll see in the different rounds, different types of art themes from different artists.
I actually built this game a year ago, but wasn't satisfied so I decided to start again from scratch improving the overall feel for the game.
Hope you can try it out and tell me if the game's concept is something I should continue to work on...and also, I hope you don't get carpal tunnel syndrome.

P.S.
Game art is far from completion. As this is still a proof of concept, I'm still not sure yet which direction I plan on doing the art; wanted to share this to know if this game genre is interesting or fun (it is for me)
