Hey — thanks a lot for taking the time to write such detailed feedback.
Really appreciate the thought you put into it; that kind of insight really helps me tighten things up between versions.
Some of what you mentioned is already being worked on — the quest log will be in for v0.2, and I really like your idea about showing when characters are present in locations, I didn't of adding that but I’ll look into that soon. I will take what you suggested seriously and I'm sure within a couple more versions all those gameplay issues will be solved.
I’m glad you took the time to play and share your thoughts — it means a lot. 🙏
