Wow, my niece had DDR music playing last night. It got me thinking about how fun it was to play that game and the keyboard equivalent of it.Went to HN today and saw this. Looks pretty good. I wouldn't play it much, but I see an audience for it. It has a lot of potential as well.1. Color coded directions 2. Progressive difficulty 3. Positive reinforcement (You're doing great!)I find myself focusing on the top right but also using my peripheral vision to see the upcoming directions.The better I am with my pattern recognition the more I can focus on the bottom of the screen and have the next 2-3 moves buffered (like a Simon game).Very good job! I'll forward this one out to my niece. Hope it gets some traction for you!A few suggestions for future release.1. Add a variant of soundtracks and speeds 2. Add a variant of end points to change the point of focus. 3. Perhaps even add a "bomb" element. So, if you get X amount of points, you gain bombs (think geometry wars or pacman championship). The bombs will allow you to sort of reset the built up arrows when things get a bit difficult.Score : 4400

Nice job! This is really polished and you clearly worked a lot on it!A couple of quick comments on it, after playing it for 15 minutes.- I didn't realize until I had been playing about 5 minutes that the box at the top needed to match the arrow at the time that the arrow boxes went in to it. When I started out, I was trying to change as soon as I saw the new directions.- Nice job on the animations. I think they're just right, and you really did a great job on using the right combination of CSS and JS (imho).- As a guy with a left handed friend, and working on a cramped Macbook Air keyboard it would be really nice to have WASD support.Again though, awesome job!

has an addictive potential, but the rotation gives me a headache after 5 seconds.

Wow, that's quite addicting. It's the simple things in life...One suggestion - at first it was unclear to me that I had to type the arrow key right when it entered the box (since it came from the box also).

Very cool. I did something very similar a few year ago. In the end people came for the soundtrack @zerstoerer threw together for the game.<a href="http://tastatour.co/" rel="nofollow">http://tastatour.co/</a> <a href="https://soundcloud.com/zerstoerer/tastatour" rel="nofollow">https://soundcloud.com/zerstoerer/tastatour</a>

Fun, but stutters on my workstation, making it unplayable - FF 38.0.5, 32GB ram, Xeon E5 2690, GTX 780 Ti

I'd be interested to see what happens to people's scores if the colors are sometimes changed to not match (Stroop effect).

Not sure how other commenters get such a high score, I can't even get past 500

Seems a bit buggy on Safari 8.0. Sometimes the arrows don't seem to animate. Also, how do I know when to press the button? Is there some feedback I'm not seeing?

This is really fun, I must've done something wrong the first time because it failed right away, but second try I got 5866.Do the arrows have to be in the square thing when you press?

Very nice. I especially like that it's contained within such a tight space but still gives you enough time to react and plan ahead.15701 points on second try is pretty good right?

You should consider offering the circular mode along with a linear mode. It would be more enjoyable for me at least, having spent so much time playing GHIII.

Good stuff: it sounds like I'm doing work while playing it too."...unstoppable continuous overwelming flow of arrows..." the word you're looking for is _inexorable_ .
