Hey there Sawyer!
One of the programmers here, first of all thank you so much for trying out our game, and even making a video about it (Great video btw).
The search function is a bit tricky, as it uses the arrow keys instead of WASD. We unfortunately did not have time to properly communicate this, as time before release is usually very busy. I'm not sure what the plans are for the near future of Velocimom as we are heading onto new projects, courses and gamejams at YRGO (Our university), but if we do release an update this will definitely be in it.
I'll write it again here at the bottom so more might see it, but:
The search function on the Sofa and the Fridge uses the Arrow keys, when you're above an item you add it to your inventory by pressing the E key.
You can exit the Sofa and the Fridge by pressing ESC (Escape key).
Thank you so much again for playing our game! :)
