I wouldn't say the gameplay is underwhelming! I think the mechanics are cool but just a little too challenging for me (bad gamer). It's a jam so a perfect balance is pretty hard to attain, but I think you put forward a lot of cool ideas you should be proud of, especially if you did this as a solo dev! Also in my previous comment the "suffocating" comment was meant as a compliment, but I realize due to the theming of the game it might have sounded more critical than I meant hehe. Congrats again on the submission, this one has stuck with me more than most!
