I must say I didn't understand much of what to do. How to use the tools and the chest? I pressed E for interact on everything, but nothing ever happened. I could pick up wood and brought it to the tools, but couldn't figure out what to do with it. I was able to feed some seaweed to the mollusk and he seemed to eat it, but he didn't grow or anything, and he didn't eat any more.

The concept sounds very cool though, so I'm sure there some interesting content here that I missed!

The character doesn't show it  in the game currently but it has a direction it's facing based on your last input so that could be the issue otherwise  it could be a issue with the interface scaling. What resolution did you play at?

At the start the seaweed is too big for the little mollusk so you should feed it the pearls instead. Did it do an eat animation for the seaweed?

Found some bugs: 

  1. For some reason, when dropping things, I would sometimes get to where it said 1/5 but when I open the inventory it is empty. I think this is related to trying to pick things up when the inventory is full, and it drops the extra on the ground? But I am not sure. 
  2. When I eventually upgraded my bag space, it went from 5 to 2.... so it was more of a downgrade...

I hope you get this fixed! I love this style of game and would happily play more!
