I appreciate so much that you've backed the game, played the demo, and are now leaving a comment. It helps immensely.
The good news is that the bug has been fixed in the new version of the demo we've been working on! We hope to release it within a month or so.
While there isn't much to learn about the MC in this demo, the questline that starts through Moss (the only where he offers to help the MC find her shipwreck, not the one where she offers to track down the friend that owes Moss money) will lead to more discovery about Vera and why she is the way she is in the full version of the game
