Great narrative throughout, and loved the overall aesthetic. The only thing I wish for is that there was a little more to the gameplay, but that's just me being nitpicky. Good job :)

Really great game; the minimalist aesthetic is a delight and the humorous meta writing iss a real joy to read.
It's a really polished piece, and honestly there's not much constructive criticism to give as I feel you pretty much achieved exactly what you were going for!
That said, I wasn't hugely aware of what my score was being determined by... like I was releasing the keys to gain core but i was also destroying them? At first I thought I wasn't meant to destroy them haha.
But really, the polish is so so strong, and I love the overall concept, definitely one of my favourites from the jam!

SacrificesAt the beginning it was obvious for me knowing what you have to do in the game, but definitely I was wrong hahahahaha, sorry about that. Indeed I am making a new version with an interactive tutorial and some more key comments. Anyway I am glad to read that you liked it despite of that problem. I really appreciate that in my first jam so many people think that my game is one of their favourites. You make me very happy :D
The writing was great! I stuck around to see what most of the keys said, and I thought you did a great job. The minimalist art style worked really well here. I loved the sound change between regular dialogue and yelling dialogue (screen shake included)!
Overall, great submission!

Bullet JumpGreat looking game. Visuals are awsome. I would have wished for and Tutorial and an audio slider. Sound is great too.

HalcyonMoonA great game, with lots of polish. I would have wished for some kind of tutorial, though, as it wasn't completely obvious how the game was played. Other than that very fun, gorgeous visuals and amazing sounds!

The Power GridAmazing game, its simple yet very addictive and the dialogue is funny.

I frogot my backpackThis game is so fun, I got 58 as my high score, it feels more interactive when the game is talking to you and you see the key you pressed actually in the game.
Great job!

Maze of the Neglected TriangleIf 58 is your highscore I think that you didn't use the wave bomb (holding key until letter bar is full and then release). Also if the key is pressed avoids being hurt by letters. This is something that a lot of people missed and that I should have explained in the game.
I recommend you to try it because it REALLY improves the gameplay, if you have some troubles there is more information about it and a video showing that in the game page. Sorry about that. Anyway I am glad you have a good time.
