I think it needs more backstory before diving into the first decision. I wouldn't think that a crashing sound is even slightly worthy of investigating when I know there are storm clouds, because it's probably thunder, and the choice made no sense at all to me. But after playing through, it seems apparent that the MC is already fully aware of what the crash is even without investigating it and it definitely isn't thunder. But the player isn't aware of that. We have so much less information than the MC and can't make informed choices.
Hiya! I updated the game, made it longer with more meaningful choices and two separate endings!
Thanks for your feedback from last time, and I hope these offer better insight into the characters, and let me know if it meets your expectations.
Let me know if you'd like to see more of this world, I'm currently using this prototype to gauge interest!
Thanks for your time!
