Such a cool idea! The art and visuals were so cute and they all fit together very well. The controls were super hard, but I assume that was by design. A great challenge! I did run into some bugs - the key remapping didn't work, and even after refreshing the page the game didn't reset properly. Anyway, this was a lot of fun! I didn't notice until after reading other people's comments that the pun changes every time, so I had fun refreshing and reading the puns!

Thank you so much for your kind words, I’m so happy you had fun!

I’m really sorry that the key remapping didn’t work for you, I think it might have been the itch issue where the inputs just don’t work sometimes.

We’re so sad that the bug with the score not resetting wasn’t caught before time ran out! More play testing is definitely a lesson we’ll be taking with us.

We had a lot of fun coming up with as many puns as possible! We ended up with a pretty long list :D

Thanks for playing!
