Thanks a lot for your thoughtful reply!
This project teached us that a good tutorial can change the point of view from players a lot. We are definetly adding some indicators in the future, and maybe some surprises like buildings, obstacles and as you propose, location specific messages. We decided to keep it as it is now to not overscope the project and make it fit in this 10 days, but all of your comments are filling us with energy and strenght to continue it and make it a bit bigger <3
