Hey there! I appreciate your detailed review :) The click and release interaction was not intended, but it does seem to be a "happy accident" that people that people enjoy. I think it's a good medium between individual tile clicks and hold+drag to interact with tiles (which I feel would trivialize the game).
Yeah we found the menu glitch after the jam ended. Very quick fix, but alas, didn't see it in time.
I am curious what you mean about the text streaming, because I am using visible_characters rather than updating the actual label text. Perhaps there's a setting I am missing? Feel free to dm me @chriqqq on Discord if you'd be willing to explain further! (Edit: yes, seems I'm missing the visible_characters_behavior, I'll give it a shot. thanks!)
With the multiple fauna bug, I'll have to look into what's going on and put up a fix after the jam ends. The music trigger logic was very last minute, so it could definitely be better, haha.
But thank you so much for playing, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
