This is really good. It’s quite amazing for a first game. There are some areas of improvement tho. I think that the main menu can use some improvements. I didn’t see anything that told me what buttons to press so I assumed “enter” and “ESC” but those weren’t it and it took me a second to figure out. Of course, the is some polish but I get it’s a practice game so adding those effects might not be the best time-wise.
I took the liberty to add some UI elements that would help the player understand what is the purpose of the game. They also give the player some sense of progress, agency, and other good feelings that we want the players to feel while playing the game.
Overall really good work, I hope to see more from you in the future.
