Late comment, but this was great! Echoing what others have said, I was expecting some impact outside of mechanical impact for my actions - mainly visual updates, like people helping out representing a passive income upgrade. As much as I was doing, the situation at the beach didn't seem to truly be improving (which may be something you're going for, I don't know how the game will end!).

I really appreciate this detailed feedback! I agree with points, adding some visual candies after upgrades could benefit, but its out of scope now :( And for the other one, situation going worse at the beach despite your actions... I think you understood it clearly ;) Which makes me happy bcz that indeed is intention, but we don't want to make spoilers, so its just slighly visible on the beach
