Love the cognitive dissonance! I especially appreciate the immediate respawn so you can focus exclusively on the controls and obstacles you just about made :P :)
I'm not sure that it hits the mark on the subversion of genre. I like the aesthetic and maybe there's a nihilistic bent or at least moral transcending humanity but it seems straightforward as far as text-adventire-interpretation goes.
Clever bartering game where you need to read the desires of the characters based on their character design. Could use more fleshing out but great for a jam!
