The first twenty seconds of this are the cleanest onboarding I have seen in the jam. The target silhouette is drawn on the canvas as a dashed outline before I touch anything, the umbrella is already selected, and the line says 'drag the umbrella onto the floor'. Verb, object, destination, all in one sentence, and the outline shows me what success looks like without explaining the rules. That is the exact thing most entries get wrong. Small note: the stage header puts the timer bar left of the stage name where the eye goes to the big target panel first, so I found the clock late. Audio I could not judge in the browser, so I have left that criterion neutral rather than guess.
