Requiring the use of a numpad makes this game far less accessible than it could otherwise be- I couldn't play at all on my laptop. I think this game would have benefited greatly from a simpler and more consistent control scheme. I also think the game would have benefitted from more explanatory text/legends integrated with the gameplay, instead of frontloading all the explanation and relying mostly on pictures when e.g. collecting items.
Graphics read fairly well, and everything about the game appears to correctly adhere to the jam's aesthetic constraints.
