Eradication of all jesters is not a sentence I would have expected in this jam, that do be very serious!
The boost mechanic was not always working for me, probably because my cursor went out of the playable window? I’d suggest having this one open full screen (or larger at least) since the game window is rather small. (there should be a setting on the edit game page of itch to allow for this)
Good job creating this game!
