The writting is super good and funny but the game end too quickly to really enjoy it. I’m not against using free assets but it would have been cool to use this gained time to add a little bit more content to the game. Also, controls are not super clear at first: it would have been useful to show the 4 controls in some corners of the screen (e, i, up and down). I really love the little sounds when people are talking, did you make this soundtrack? And where’s that hammer?!

Thanks for the review!!  Glad you liked it. I'm planning to add more content,  my time management skills is a little wonky you see. I'll add clearer control guides when i update this (laughs in lack of playtesters).

I got the sfx from this neat website called pixabay. You should definitely check it out! The hammer spawns towards the Lady which is to your left. It's hinted it in the dialogs if you squint \(˃ ᵕ ˂ )/
