Hi! Thank you so much for playing and for providing feedback, I appreciate the time you took to write a comment :))
100% see your point on the direction and the setup. Since it is a slow-burn, starting at the early stages doesn't spark the curiosity or intrigue the way I was hoping it would. I was hoping to do a bit of an experiment, with making one chapter in the beginning and a cut to a much later chapter, which I did not get to do. I think time-wise I definitely underestimated how long this would take.
Your suggestion about the party is amazing, I am definitely going to implement it moving forward! excited about how it could add to the characters, thank you again!!
