That’s surprising, because I use firefox, and it works for me here, too. The only difference is that on itch.io the game is embedded on a frame, so one needs to click on the frame (but outside the canvas, so on the light background) to focus it. At least, that’s how it works on firefox for me, but maybe not on all versions/configurations? Maybe try shift+click there or something, to ensure the click is not intercepted by anything?
Works with firefox on my friend's computer too. Not sure what's wrong with mine. Couldn't get it to work but it works fine on the other site so it's not too big a problem. Game loads but doesn't repond to mouse or keyboard, including with shift click. Right clicking lets me open up a picture of the title screen as an image.
Could be something related to ad blocking and frames, yeah. Glad that you could solve it by selecting “show only this frame”: sounds indeed like a good trick to make it appear and work the same as in the project’s website.
Looks very cool. Played for 1-2 minutes and enjoyed it. However, the keyboard commands (space, ?, M, V, E, etc.) don't seem to work with Chrome. I had to use mouse to trigger commands, but then it asked me to enter ESC/SPACE to continue but these keypresses do nothing.
Due to how the canvas captures the mouse for other purposes, one needs to click on the light background, not on the canvas directly, to give focus to the frame, so that’s why I put those instructions. I normally use firefox, and that works without issues there. If I understand, those instructions didn’t work in chrome?

Game only works in firefox if you go to the developer's website, but the game itself is pretty good

selecting 'show only this frame' does fix it, so probably it's my ad blocker or something

I suspect it's that the game window is never given the focus, even if you click on the frame.

I’d suggest trying shift+click to focus the frame, as that probably works even if you click on the canvas.
