Let me know about the difficulty, too easy, too hard ... too boring ... :nerd:

EDIT: removed the capitals, as it was too hard for some this way :p

That is awesome! ...except for the fact that I'm to lazy to keep changing the caps lock all the time :P

Pretty sweet, but it might actually be more fun if there were no capital letters.

It's a bit too hard with the capital letters :D Really fun though! Great if you want to learn to write without looking at the keyboard!

Cool, taking out the capitals leaves me room for an extra line, rejoice! :)

My little brother inspired me to make this, as he is now learning to type. Glad you guys like it!

EDIT: btw, my record is 35 overrides only needed, feel free to post your highscores here. :p:

EDIT2: a friend of mine has the topscore for now, she only needed an insane 31 overrides, the freak. :)

For me to know, for you to find out ;) But if you dig in the AS, you'll find it pretty easily.

It's not that hard imo, only if you can't type blind with both hands ... but think of it as a challenge/practice then. :)

Got it in 28. :D

At first it didn't work for me - elevator never went down and it kept going up until it was out of the browser window. I couldnt' figure out what was going on. Clicking on "tiny tim" a few times made it happen.

I seem to have trouble making it work in Firefox - text just disappears. Also, it would be great if there was a countdown to start after clicking on Tim. You waste a sec or two getting from mouse to keyboard. But that's a nitpicky thing.

Nice work! :thumb:

Yeah, I had a line or 2 to spare so I coded in a bug that would mess up your browser and crash your HD eventually ... Thought that would be fun ...

j/k, that's just weird, seeing as it's just basic AS and that very little can go wrong ... :)

And 28!? Damn! Wait till I tell my friend and my sister, they both were so proud of their 29's! :d
