Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
The art was actually AI-generated, haha. I cannot draw at all myself. I also decided not to look for an artist, because this is my first project, and I was worried that I might not be able to carry my own part of the work through to the end: the code and the writing. I did not want to risk wasting someone else’s time if the project ended up going nowhere. I did get a bit of help with the menu and a few visual elements, though.
And thank you for the kind words about the writing. To be honest, I ended up spending a huge amount of time on coding, so there was much less time left for the story than I would have liked. Even that part still feels undercooked to me. I am planning to keep working on both the visuals and the story.
