It's tough-- I am not sure I really know what to do. But that is my fault.. I'm not sure if it is the window'd mode? My mouse keeps jumping in and out of the window.
The graphics are good. The art style is good. It just feels very overwhelming, control and content wise. Maybe just introduce one thing at a time? Instead of all at once? That first screen where everything is labelled for example. Maybe have it so each one reveals itself as you press spacebar, so you look at each one?

Here is my game; some people were complaining about the controls and I spent some time cleaning it up. If you see anything else to add/change.
