Had a ton of fun playing Midwest 90! Art style is beautiful and the music was great. Game loop was fun, I feel like everything was introduced steadily so it wasn't overwhelming and I was able to grasp what was going on.

 As far as issues go, not everything was immediately obvious to me in the hud. I didn't realize the days of the week till I was quite far in the demo so when it would pop up that I could change my perks I couldn't figure out where to keep track of the days. I eventually realized but like I said it did take me some time. It was also unclear to me that "Mr. X" would be rating my place. I thought once the 2 weeks were up some crazy event was gonna happen. Maybe I missed something in the initial letter but if not it was very unclear. There were also a few grammatical errors. Many places where it says "Am" but should have said "I'm" (unless this was done on purpose? But it didn't come across to me like that) as well as a line from Jericho that should have been blue but was instead white as if he was saying it. There was also a day where my cooks could not get passed the tables and into the kitchen even though it looked like enough space. They could still cook the food through the wall outside though haha. I moved the table and it fixed it but it would have been nice to know before placing it if they were not going to be able to walk by.

I was also curious if there could be different outcomes to things? When speaking with Nancy she wants us to look out for Pratchit (sp? the guy with the sign) but I don't believe I had  an option to do that? And instead he became infatuated with the green light. Other than those few things it was a fun game and I look forward to the full release! I've included the vod below, Midwest starts at 53 mins in.
