Having my game be the first of its type that someone plays is a HUGE honor, thank you so much for giving it a try!!
Kinetic novels by definition, lack gameplay so they are essentially interactive books (hence the story reading vibe). It's definitely not stupid to suggest voice acting, as acclaimed kinetic novels tend to have both options. When you're as small and broke as me in terms of dev reach, however...it's not exactly the most possible thing to accomplish.
Luckily, the game is slated for a 2028 release, so with enough of an audience, I may have actual luck with recruiting VAs by the time I finish the script.
