*Edit*
We have fixed a most of the issues now, so I would like to invite you to try the game again if you did so previously! :)
*Edit*
Made a fix so the arrow keys can't just be spammed randomly to finish the tasks :)
The screen is black at start (my real monitor, not the in-game one) until I press SPACE. I can progress up until 4-5 questions, until the book appears. After that, the screen goes black again. I can press SPACE to reset, but the book disappears and I have to start from the beginning. That means I'll be stuck in the loop and can't progress (quite fitting in a way, ha!)

I really like the music and minimalist graphical style!
I'll gladly revisit the game if there will be a bug-fix or something.
(...if the way I got stuck was really unintentional, and not planned that is!)
Feels good when you get yourself into a rhythm, kinda reminds me of the Cook, Serve, Delicious! games.
Good job!
