Thanks for all this detailed feedback.
At the moment the game is still a prototype so a LOT of what you've brought up are things we're planning on improving and addressing in the final game. We've only really worked on this for about a month and a half so I understand things are a bit unpolished at the moment.
We'll be adding a lot more mechanics to the final game around finding fossils, a town to explore, a research system, different tools, more interactivity during visitor mode etc etc. So there are a lot of cool features and improvements planned.
We've taken all your feedback to heart and thanks for taking the time to write it all out.
