Mnemonic

You're in a room, surrounded completely by yellow. You can't get out. Somewhere in the room is a yellow key (き) but you can't find it, because everything looks the same. You crawl around trying to find this tiny thing so that you can escape.

Hints

The walls are coming in closer, too. Make sure you feel a bit of peril as you look for this key. The walls have a slight opening at the bottom too, so if you don't find it before the wall goes over it, the key will be lost forever, and you'll be smushed!
