About it
A manual typewriter, captured from photos and drawn with splats. Press a key and a thin arm swings up, strikes an inked ribbon against the paper, and falls back; the paper's carriage then steps one space to the left.
Tap Labels (a button on the stage's right edge) and five numbered markers appear: the keys, the type bars, the ribbon spool, the platen, and the carriage. Tap one to read about it while the view glides there. Tap the machine itself and it hops.
