I love the idea! I don't know how some of you guys come up with these ideas XD but it's funny.
I did end up getting caught on a row of blocks as I ran out of hearts to throw, so in that case a pause menu or reset would be convenient. If there is one, I assumed it was Escape so didn't find.
I hope he someone finds his wife, cuz I wasn't good enough. Oh btw, I thought the hand drawn scenes were a lovely touch!
