I've completed this. What a delightful and pleasingly simple game. It's a shame that you didn't finish it in time for the Text Adventure Literacy jam that is was intended for originally as it definitely ticks all the boxes there. In this setting, it's a refreshingly straightforward and uncomplicated playing experience compared with some of the other entries (including my own)  and a pleasant way to spend half an hour or so.

The two word parser is a slightly difficult thing: prohibiting prepositions results in some awkward and unnaturally phrased commands such as TV ON and STAND CHAIR that feel more like raising than lowering the barrier for new players, but the efforts made elsewhere to help people along (like the tutorial) make up for that to a large degree. It's pretty solidly implemented as well, although I did spot a couple of missing descriptions (for example, you can't examine the steering wheel in the car or the tree that Molly is occupying). A few such tweaks here and there would help to flesh out the game world a little.

A very nice game overall. Oh, and I liked the tunes as well!

Thanks for the feedback - I am glad you liked it and your feedback is very useful for my upcoming post-comp release!

I agree, that prohibiting phrases like TURN TV ON and STAND ON CHAIR makes the game harder. The two-word limit was a requirement for the Text Adventure Literacy Jam. Perhaps it should be modified so that two-word commands are always sufficient, rather than required. I will think about that...    :D
