Thanks for playing and thanks for your feedback!
Sorry you didn't have a good experience with the game... I'm a little confused by your criticism of the start screen. Is the menu of start, continue, options and credits too much? I probably won't change that.
You are meant to figure things out over several runs. You are not expected to know everything at once. But I will be adding an item and dialogue to help guide the player a little more.
I hope you give it another go and try to engage with the mechanics and progression. But otherwise thanks again and hope you have a wonderful day 😁
