Thank you very much for all the feedback and for the advice. I will keep it all in mind for my next game jam. I have studies Agile and Waterfall development methods but admittedly it's not something I considered when working on this project but it is definitely something I will consider next time. Thank you also for your kind words regarding the UI and game concept. Regarding the music, however, I must apologise but I foolishly forgot to re-enable sound in the code (I disabled it temporarily to listen to music while I worked on the game). If you are interested though, the music files can be found by extracting the jar file, although it may be easier to wait for the next release. I appreciate the game is very underdone as of this game jam version, unfortunately, but I hope you'll return to the project when it reaches full release. And thanks again for the feedback.

Ah, too bad for the sound files! I'll wait and gladly try the next build. Let me know when it's up :)
Also you're saying the game is "underdone" but in my opinion it has a lot of content for a jam game already! (Just look at some of the other entries, they're really small) It's just that it's encapsulated in a much larger box. So for the jam version just reduce the box size and you'll be fine :D
