Well I did not expect an ascii game to be sent in the game jam. It was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. One critic tho, why the "zqsd" control layout? Is this they layout in a specific language for your keyboard instead of wasd?
For example for me the Z is next to the letter T on the hungarian keyboard and it was wierd for me that the up is so far from the rest of the letters.
But good job on the game, very Unique!
