Hey, thank you for branching out and trying my game, even though it was not your typical game. It is still really valuable to get feedback from people completely fresh to the genre. I am glad (and impressed) that you were able to figure everything out from tooltips without prior experience, as I do not have any sort of tutorial yet.
Is the recording available anywhere? It would really help me shape the future tutorial if I can see which parts were the most confusing.
Thank you again for giving it a shot and sharing your experience!
