press the right arrow key to test. apparently, the makey makey block is smoother when pressing keys for a longer amount of time. sometimes it doesn't work when there's a bit of time between presses. "when key pressed" is more janky, but works faster both of these methods for key detection are nearly obsolete when you wanna make the user hold down a button for a certain amount of time so this is kinda pointless, but I thought it would be interesting to test
