Great jam entry. Simple, but effective pixel art, lots of absurdist humor, the game and puzzles had a nice flow to them.

However, I'm not completely sold on the 9-verb interface for shorter jam games, because it ends up being somewhat underused. There were some verbs that I didn't need at all and a lot of the combinations gave random generic responses, because there wasn't enough time to implement all sorts of unique and fun interactions for most things. All this kind of makes it a slightly cumbersome interaction experience with few rewards.

But hey, I did enjoy it and had lots of fun playing the game. Well done!

Thank you! I really appreciate your feedback!

Totally understandable re the 9-verb interface. As it was my first adventure game (jam or otherwise), I wanted to recreate the 9-verb interface that I loved so much as a kid. I knew it wouldn't be for everyone for the reasons you gave (and more), but I decided to do it anyway, if only to try to pack in a greater number of (hopefully) funny quips. And in all honesty I could've saved a good amount of time if I'd not used the 9-verb interface, too. But oh well--it was still fun to work with for me!

Thank you again for playing the game and for your feedback! You made my day!
