Thank you so much! It's definitely held together with duct tape and paper clips in the state it's currently in, so I appreciate you playing through what you did. I think the tutorial and UI is in many ways the most important part of Game Jam games, but I couldn't fit it in before the deadline this go around, unfortunately.
And I'm glad you liked the idea--I felt like your game was a design after my own heart as well, so I'm glad you could appreciate my project.
