Essay for the Tilted One
Believe it or not, the tutorial is this detailed and in-depth because, if I recall, people complained about a lack of detail before this. And after a while, the average new player would just skim through the dialogue, bypass the entire tutorial, jump in a hole, and start the story mode, then go and complain that they have no idea how to operate anything and that the game sucks. They implemented a fix for this by kind of forcing you to actually read the tutorial windows, but it doesn't help that it's a lot crammed into one continuous learning experience.
I do think the tutorial could be dumbed down quite a bit for the average person, but then again, the game isn't really made with the average person in mind; the controls have to feel like using old retro tech, and many things require out-of-the-box thinking skills, which is normal for an experienced gamer (such as yours truly), but not normal for the average Joe.
I also think even if the tutorial was dumbed down, most people like you just wouldn't get any real joy out of playing this game; you probably aren't the target audience if the janky, ever-changing tutorial in an alpha version  game pisses you off this much.
Ain't trying to be mean like most of the people replying to you either, because they probably assume you sound ridiculous and are rightfully filtered. I just think if the game is getting a Steam release in the future, I'd just wait for that, as the tutorial will most likely be dumbed down enough to get through without hitting your head against the wall, but my advice is to just keep your cool, read the text, press the buttons, and you'll be done in no time. Less time than a 2-hour tutorial video that people were directing you to.
You can do it. I believe in you.
