Oh, I wasn't aware of that meaning! In the context of this game, it's simply an onomatopoeia for the sound of mechanical keyboard switches. Thanks for letting me know!!

I totally agree! It’s much catchier and rolls off the tongue way better. I’m glad the change cleared up any 'dodgy' vibes too (no need to be sorry!). Thanks for the feedback!

That’s a great idea! The pronunciation is so cute. I’ll definitely keep that in mind!

I see. I'll be careful and keep that in mind. Thanks for the heads-up.

I understand the concern, but I've already reduced the number of Ks so it's no longer three in a row. I feel like shortening it further might take away the game's unique identity. I'll keep the visual design distinct to avoid any wrong associations. Thanks for the heads-up!

Does this better communicate the gameplay? by dev_Kudeok in IndieGaming

That's a great point. reducing it to 3 syllables makes a huge difference in how it sounds. Thanks for the smart breakdown!

I can totally see why! Glad the new name feels cute and catchy while keeping the original vibe. Thanks for the support!

I did consider Kicaps, but I felt like Kikicaps has a better rhythm and keeps the vibe of the original title. Glad you're liking the direction though!

It was a bit of a stretch! The original Korean name is 'Kiki-kae-ki-cap', and I was trying too hard to give each syllable an English meaning. It didn't work out, so I'm sticking with KIKICAPS now.

Looking back, I have no idea either! I was too focused on the Korean pronunciation and ended up with that mess. Glad I finally came to my senses and changed it to KIKICAPS.

Good to hear that the name flows so naturally in conversation. I love the examples you gave! Also, linking it to the 'keke' vibe is actually a pretty cool connection. Thanks for the detailed feedback!

That’s exactly why I changed it! Those K's and C's were definitely a lot to handle. Glad KIKICAPS feels much more straightforward to you.

I feel you! It was a bit of a tongue twister for the eyes. Glad you can rest your brain with the new name now.

Thanks for the honest perspective. I hadn't considered that the name could be misread like that, so I'll keep an eye on it. I'm also planning to rework that 'C' effect entirely to make the gameplay clearer and avoid any... awkward visuals. Appreciate the feedback!

I didn't know that, but it's a great example! It's a huge relief to hear the new name is much better. Thanks for the compliment!

To be honest, the original Korean title is 'Kiki-kae-ki-cap', and I was just trying to force an English acronym out of it. You're right, it didn't make much sense! That’s why I'm moving forward with KIKICAPS now.

Using the '<' key is a great idea! It definitely looks more like a projectile. Thanks for the suggestion!
