The concept is really interesting. I feel like there's something funny about conversations getting tangled leading to DEATH. Not saying this in mock, it just reminds me of old propaganda posters from past times telling people not to talk about troop movement.
I digress, the game is a neat idea. I really like the art style. I think it's a bit too unforgiving with the coliding.
It would also be cool if you can direct the speed at which the messages travel based on sharpness of the path taken? Something like that could be cool for management maybe.
Congrats on submitting!
