Oops, I think this might be something to do with previous text not clearing quickly enough. Right before a new text line is shown the previous is shown again for a brief second, making it look like something was skipped. We'll get this sorted in the next patch. Thank you for letting us know :)
I'm more inclined to believe it's skipping currently, because when it took me to the pickaxe store the tutorial guy walked off without saying anything about what to do there
