I liked your approach to the theme, it was really unexpected. I really liked your use of UI (and their little funny descriptions) such as the switch for full health, really funny. I think the difficulty should advance slowly for new players to pick up the gameplay, asides that well done to you!

Awesome idea, I loved the story and the idea. Very well thought through and I could relate to the theme. The letters appearing on screen felt a bit weird not sure if it was too slow or the way the letters appeared. Also needed a little bit more of a tutorial to help figure out what to do! That being said, really well done!

Cool game, I really like the philosophical approach.  The game is almost too fast-paced in the  beginning but on the other hand it's nice to get a challenge :)

Really cool concept.  I loved the story and dialog.  This was a lot of fun to play.  Really well done.

it was a little difficult at first, but super fun.

Would have been nice to not have to go through all the dialog every time you die, but not game breaking.  

Really well done!

A simple and efficient game ! I really like the animation of the UI elements and the text, the game is quite polished. Also very relatable xD

The one thing i would say is that it feels a bit overwhelming too quickly, and it can discourage players (not myself included by the way)

All in all it's a good game, well done !
