This is a cute start to a game. It's a shame you ran out of time before you could get to telling much of a story. I do think this project could have benefited from a fleshed out project timeline or some kind of design doc. Something you could use to assess your progress objectively and prioritize crucial features so that what you do submit can still convey what you want it to, and you won't have to worry about Mel climbing in your windows to fight you later XD
What you were able to get done shows promise. I already like the humor even in the little bit there is to play. Your animations are nice too.
