Fun game! I gotta be honest, when trying games for the first time, I really feel that all text should just be able to be skipped. It was hard to read and in tiny segments my wrist started hurting from continuously pressing the J button. I think if you set it up where the dialogue was short, but you could go back and talk to the NPCs more that would have been much better. I would also liked to have more standard control with return and space used instead of J & K. Art was really cool and the retro feel was awesome. Well done!

Hey thanks for playing! Breaking up the text into smaller chunks is something I’ll be adding in the big post-jam update I have planned (also adding an easier to read font haha). For the controls I’ll keep your critiques in mind, but in my experience J & K are pretty standard action keys and fall where people’s hands generally rest while typing as they’re both on the home row. That being said I will likely add the option to jump and accept menu choices using the spacebar as there are quite a few games that use it as an action key as well. Stayed tuned for Big Update 1, the “Mechanics Update” which will be uploaded once the voting period ends. Thanks again for playing ❤
