Had fun playing this at the GameDev meet up, great job y'all!
I was looking so forward to playing this as I love japanese culture, and language. Which this game accuratly depicts. The theme is so uniform and cohesive. I was not able to play when I opened the build but I get it. Its a game jam that happens sometimes, but this was an amazing visual game.
Thank you so much! For your issue, the game requires two players, so you won't be able to do anything without another controller or keyboard input registered.
