For a first outing in coding and game dev y'all did a great job! The game was really fun and controlled well, my high score was 64k, which I'm told is not that high in the grand scheme of things but hey it felt good.
Some things to do immediately is definitely update the music to be a bit less repetitive, and as much as spreading chairs was funny (definitely keep that as an easter egg if you keep working on it) adding more sprites would make it clearer what is happening. Also I'd say add more levels, where the goal is to save all the people.
Y'all should be proud of this as a first time game jam, looking forward to seeing what you do on future ones!
