Hello! Thank you so much for your feedback!
Yes, you are right, the game is a little too fast paced with too little explanation on what is going on, probably leading to some uncertainty on how your actions, and whether you win or lose affects your game.
And it probably is the number one priority in our schedule after this jam, to fix this "progression", slow the pace of the game and create a real build up for things.
Thanks for playing our little game!
