Played for a few minutes, and it seems like maybe it has potential. But I very quickly got tired of waiting for the text. I read a lot faster than the text displays, and there seems to be no way to make it faster, only to skip it (which if done by accident means going back through and reading it again, slowly, to figure out what was missed).
Thank you very much for taking the time to play and leave feedback, we appreciate it. We absolutely agree with you and regret not adding in an option to skip scrolling text with a simple click. After the jam ends, we hope to release a version that is a bit cleaner.
Have a beautiful day <3
