Thank you for your thoughts! :) It's interesting to read about what worked about the story for you! I do think that I wouldn't have changed anything about this story (actually, making it longer probably would have made it significantly worse and more dull/poorly paced, I would agree), but hmm, I suppose it's just because I got attached to the characters? Even though I tried to scope this project relatively small and didn't come up with complex backstories for the characters to begin with, I ended up making them a bit more well-rounded in my notes over the course of development, and I'm a little disappointed I didn't get to add all that in there!
