@Cheeseness ah yes, you're right, the text is skippable. But I cannot skip the scrolling in, ie. if I want to be able to read it, I have to wait for the scroll effect to finish. It would be nice to be able to click that text and have it appear instantly. You know, for us low-attention-span internet gamers. =)
But really, the idea is very nice and it's sad that you didn't get around to implementing more of it for the Jam.
Did you, by any chance, play "Spaceward Ho!" twenty years ago?
