Theme very much nails “retro”. Reminds me of old NES games. I’m not a huge fan of horror vibes, but it is what it is.
Controls wise, they’re a little clunky. If you miss one, you’re there waiting for a while, which doesn’t really mesh with the premise. Mashing a button also isn’t my favourite, and combined with timing the others becomes really quite frustrating for me. Maybe I should have used two different hands for A/D and Space.
Tutorial… felt slow. Would have been nice to have a “speed up”, or skip text control
Culture wise, feels like a nice nod to QWOP :)
Overall, it’s nice and interesting :D
