To tick - LEFT ALT
To correct - LEFT CTRL

Looks interesting, but for some reason I do not see anything in the white banners that the question marks are holding. Perhaps it's because I'm running it with Wine in Linux.

Interesting setup (the pen is just as mighty as the sword!) but for me the Right Ctrl key did not register, hence I sucked at the game ;) Still, the need to do both platforming and spell-checking at the same time is somewhat challenging, albeit the platforming could benefit from not being as zoomed it. Nice game!

Very nice idea, and nice look to it! I wish it was a bit longer.. Would have preferred to play it a little bit more zoomed out, with some more overview. But nice job :)

I liked the idea and art style.
The control could have been tightened up, the jump was frustrating. Couldn't really see much as the viewing field was too small.
But nice use of the theme.

For some reason RIGHT CTRL didnt work for me, but I think it was mapped into left ALT. Anyways I've enjoyed the game.Good Job!
