Love the art, music and writing. I agree with rightdress that the Disney World scene is a standout. I appreciate that the game is a linear story but the player is given the choice whether to engage with each NPC or not. I'm wondering if there will be more minigames like keeping the beehive steady. Also I wish the text box didn't cover so much of the gorgeous background art, and perhaps the font could be slightly more interesting (it's currently very readable however, so I don't want to discount that).

Great job all around and can't wait to play the full game.

I really, really like this game! The "florida man" character is especially well-written, and the interactions with all of the characters do a good job at emphasizing the importance of community while dealing with disasters. Florida is a great choice for the setting of the game, and a flooded Disney World is a humourous yet memorable location in the game. The artwork is great as well, and I like how the backgrounds get more colourful after making certain choices. Looking forward to playing the completed game!
