Really good humor, and as someone who loves glitches the glitch effects were a nice touch too. My only complaint would be that it's too easy to accidentally skip text since the arrow keys skip as well as the other keys.

Well, I can't say I didn't enjoy it but.. I just wanted a little more, the collisions were a bit crazy! Maybe a build I could go in or two.

Overall, great work!

Thank you for your feedback. The reason it might seem slightly underdeveloped is down to the time limitations of the game jam. But, thank you for your comment :)
