Interesting take on the theme and limitations. Linear story that is fun and rewarding. Gameplay that feels manageable but can be difficult for the slow typers out there. Simple but done very well. I can see this winning at least one category of the jam! Only thing that I thought was troublesome was some of the text like 'u' and 'v' looking very similar at times but maybe that adds to the challenge! Great work!

Thanks so much! Really happy with this :)
I should definitely have put a little more thought into the font I used - I absolutely love it, and it's one of my go to fonts, but 'u' and 'v' are a particular issue for this game, and there's definitely a few other moments where things can be a little challenging to read. Might have been worth sacrificing the low resolution aesthetic for clarity in this case.
I also regret not including some kind of difficulty adjustment, as something simple like adjusting enemy speed might make this more accessible. I honestly hadn't considered it all that much, having mainly balanced this to work for myself - thanks for pointing it out, it's good to be reminded to give options for players of all skill levels.
Really value the feedback on possible improvements here - thank you!
