Thanks for playing through our game!
Yeah the tutorial was done right at the end unfortunately. The design was there, but we fell short a bit on the implementation :/
The main goal itself is mostly high scoring. We had dialogue planned out, where you would receive more messages as you let them through in the gameplay phase - but sickness befalled and things went slow :D
oh and btw, on my original comment I undersold the art, it's not just 'nice art', it's actually so beautiful and well done! I was so impressed when I first opened the game! I just reread my comment and realised that I didn't express enough about what I felt about the art (and not just the animals themselves, even the details like the platforms were so well done)
