This game is a solo project and was made in 3.5 hours as a part of Trijam #152. The theme was 'Leave me alone!'

Disclaimer: This is currently balanced toward someone with approx 50-60 wpm typing speed. I hope to add speed options in the future!

Assets used:
Heartbeat sound
Help Me' Font by GGBot

Some features I may implement in the future:
Impactful typing visual effects/animations
Sound improvements
Difficulty selection for varying typing speeds


Thanks for taking the time to check this game out. Please let me know your thoughts in the comments! :)

Pretty cool. Some letters are a bit difficult to read but I could still keep the game going indefinitely. There's a small bug which is that the bar can go beyond 100%. I noticed it because it took a while for the bar to come back after a long streak without slip-ups.

A take on horror I've never seen! Great job and keep it going developer!

Not bad! The demon looks terrifying! Quite challenging at first, but as I remembering those words it become easier which I could've played longer but decided to stop lol.

I really like this horror typing idea! It's very unique and the first time I played I made a lot of typos trying to figure out how to keep it from getting me, haha.

Keep up the good work!

Hey thanks a bunch!

I love the idea of a horror-themed typing game, but maybe kern the font spacing a bit. The scratchy and jagged letters can be hard to read in longer words, let alone in time to type them. 

A score/survival time display would be nice too.

Hey, thanks for playing and taking the time to comment!

I agree, the font works thematically but clarity isn't too great. I'll likely end up changing it. Scoring was considered but just ran out of time, it'll have to go on my 'maybe add later' list ;)

Hi there, I am DragonExplosion and I am a Youtuber. If you like my videos, please leave a like and subscribe at my channel.

This was a short and simple horror game about typing words at a relatively fast speed and if the player fails to do so, the main character gets eaten by the monster. It was short and fun with an increase in difficulty of the game when short sentences are given while combined together. 

I enjoyed the game and would suggest the creator to add a harder mode to the game for players who are very fast in typing to increase their stress levels XD. I also liked the usage of word play in the title of the game with "Stay Awake" combined with "Stay Away" to create the title "Stay Awayke", it attracted my attention immediately XD.

Thank you for reading my comment and I wish you good luck in your future endeavours.
