What's the aim of the game? Are there any instructions? Which keys are in charge of motion? The cursors won't work...

Sorry, just updated the page with controls. It's WASD to move.

Thx :-)

But I still don't get the aim... is it just "getting forward" as far as you can?

The start is a bit slow, but more complexity is added fairly quickly. Overall though, yes, the goal is essentially going forward. The ending is pretty clear when you get there.

This game is awesome. I couldn't get past the chase sequence. It was super hard, especially with no checkpoints and having all the previous sequences not be nearly as difficult (it could just be that I'm bad at chase sequences though - I couldn't get past one of them in Celeste either). That being said I'd definitely play a longer version with checkpoints because I want to see how it ends! The concept and the rest of the gameplay is great.

Thanks! The chase did end up being harder than intended, we just didn't have enough time to balance it properly. But glad you enjoyed it!
