For the #48secret jam themes: dying + time, completed in 12 hours in Pico-8, including all music and art.
Had fun doing 3 quick game vignettes and cramming the sprite sheet full this time. Barely scraped together room for the logo at the end...

hmm so it looks like your "key.update" code has a bug where if a button is pushed for one frame and then released, it acts as if the button is pushed over and over at a super fast rate (i.e. every frame), indefinitely. This resulted in all the dialogue getting skipped and flying by immediately in the first cutscene thing, as soon as I pushed O to start.
Indeed, the game is fantastic, but I have the same problem: pressing a key causes the entire text to skip.
Maybe you should use btnp instead of btn?
Great game. Not many Pico8 games have narrative, and you pulled it off well.
