Can I interact with anything, or is moving l/r the only possible action? I've tried everything I could think of that might be an interaction key.

Nice music tho! And it's a cool idea.

Like MadGnomeGamer, I couldn't figure out how to interact with anything. I loved the music. Cool world, it's strange how big it seemed despite being tiny.

Sorry. There are some basic interactions. You can interact with shops and portals with the E key, use Spacebar to Jump, Left CTRL to throw a beer can. In the worlds there are a couple of collectibles, namely gold teeth and a deck chair.

Game worked well for me on Linux. It looks good and the dialog options are sort of funny lol. The maps are large, but they seem repetitive. Especially inside the "buildings". It is often just the same section on top of each others over and over again. I couldn't really figure out where to go either. I did manage to kill some big guy tho. Was fun. Good work!

I liked how big the world seemed and how there were people to talk to and whatnot but I really had a hard time playing this game. First, instructions are really important and I think most games just decide to worry about this later and never do.

I got that you interact with people with the E key but, but then pressing E again didn't make me choose the sentence I wanted to say.

I did a bit of exploring so overall I think it could be polished up, but you might have focused on making a smaller world but fixing it up really good.

My 2 cents!

I thought the game looked really good and seemed fun but it was a little difficult to interact with. I noticed some of the conversations only seemed to be printed to stdout and I couldn't seem to die. I think it could be a lot of fun if it got finished up

There's this really high pitched noise throughout the music... Other than that the game's cool but I noticed that I can jump infinitely in mid air, making things pretty easy.

Good start, but the controls were a little off.
