+1 Speed ASMR Keyboard Escape is an Obby-style speed-building game played within your web-browser. Your objective is to navigate across large keys in a "keyboard" layout; however, instead of using keys to enter information, you will use them to help increase your speed. As you cross each individual key, you earn +1 in speed per step. Although initially it may seem advantageous, these increases in speed will create a sense of urgency and force players to focus on maintaining their balance/momentum as the player progresses through the level.
Main Controls
- Move: W,A,S,D or ARROW KEYS
- Jump: SPACE
- Camera Control: MOUSE and RIGHT-CLICK
Gameplay
Each step, in addition to earning +1 speed, also generates additional speed based upon seconds spent in motion. The initial levels of this game appear relaxing, providing players with a sense of accomplishment. The subsequent levels provide increased difficulty due to the rapid acceleration of the player. As the player accelerates quickly, the course attempts to disrupt the player's ability to maintain their balance/momentum.
The cost associated with losing your footing is referred to as "falling." When you miss a landing, the player falls into a void (or a gap), resulting in a return to the beginning of the current run. In contrast, there are other ways to increase speed without falling off the course. These include treadmills that allow the player to increase their speed without having to worry about landing correctly, multipliers that increase the amount earned per step, and a global leaderboard displaying the top fastest runners.
How It Works
- To move forward, press w or the up arrow key.
- To jump the gaps between keys, press the Space bar and aim at the center of each key.
- Each time you Land on a key, listen carefully for each click since all keys landed on will add +1 speed.
- The bonuses available throughout the route should be collected as well.
- Run onto the treadmills to generate speed without worrying about falling off.
- Multipliers can be unlocked to enhance how much each step is worth.
What makes it unique?
- +1 speed per step. Every single key stepped on will add 1 unit of speed, plus additional units generated per second spent in motion.
- Scalability with difficulty. The course never changes, but increasing speeds means every jump arrives sooner.
- Sound effects from a mechanical keyboard. With each landing producing a switch click sound, each run develops its own typing style.
- Control scheme - three inputs. Only movement, jumping, and camera drags exist as controls, thus timing determines whether a run succeeds or fails.
- Training on a treadmill. Speed can be generated via standing still with no fear of falling off.
- Unlockable multipliers. Once activated, multipliers will increase the speed value of each step taken after activation.
Getting started
- Take your first few steps slow. +1 speed asmr Keyboard Escape is designed to reward knowledge of which moving platforms cycle at what times. That knowledge remains even after reflexive timing is insufficient.
- Try to Land in the center of each key. All runs will fail at the edges, and although you have plenty of control at lower speeds to establish this habit at higher speeds, it will be too late.
- Build banked speed on treadmills as soon as possible. Since treadmills offer both equal amounts of speed with no gap beneath you to lose your footing in, this is best done early.
- Learn every gap anew as your speed grows. What you learned about how to jump that gap at walking pace will not remain applicable at a sprint.
Beyond getting started
The most efficient way to develop speed in +1 Speed ASMR Keyboard Escape is not by improving your running skills, but by falling less often. Each lost opportunity to collect in-motion points is costly (a reset), therefore a line that is consistently slower than another line is preferable if it is able to be held. Treadmills represent the safe portion of your economy. Whenever possible stand on a treadmill to see down the path in front of you before committing yourself to a specific action. Multipliers are the compound aspect of your economy. Any multiplier that raises the value of each step you take after activation will always beat out any cosmetic upgrade since they affect each step after activation.
Common mistakes made
- Prioritizing maximum speed above control. At high speeds, maximizing speed results in little else except restarting.
- Making full jumps over small gaps. When you reach extremely high speeds and have Extra airtime as part of your jump sequence you go right past the next key you attempted to Land on.
- Not utilizing treadmills for generating speed. Treadmills are the only method of generating speed with absolutely no chance of falling off.
- Inspecting new areas at full speed. An area that was walked through slowly will always be remembered. An area that was jumped through rapidly is simply survived.
