I didn't understand what to do when the game started but the story is interesting in my opinion. maybe to improve the game explain what all of the state does and how to make them change.

I loved the art-style and the witty meta-narrative remarks by the narrator. I couldn't seem to figure out how the game itself worked though. I could see different bars moving around but I didn't know what they actually meant so I was kinda stuck in the start area. Enjoyed all the text selection bit though!
