Congrats on making your first game! Starting and finishing a game is seriously an incredible milestone. At the end, I found myself wanting to know what will happen at the tavern job, which is great! I think you already mentioned having choices would be the next thing you wanted to learn, which would have been my go-to feedback. 

Great job in making something visually beautiful. I can relate to the storyline in that its tough out here right after school lol. I did notice a few typos, and I think adding punctuation would've helped with the readability and some extra umph for emotion. Also, maybe some SFX for some scenes would've been nice, like a rustling paper sound as the main character opened their letter.  Choices would be a great next step for you as you continue your game dev journey. Overall, great job and stick with it!

Nice artstyle
