The first 2 levels were literally pointless as you cant get any points :D but no gamewise and story wise i think they werent. They were much shorter than the real levels and introduced gameplay that would come back in later levels. Of course i had no time to maker more levels because its a jam but to add all right away in the first level felt like an overload of things to do to me.
About the document, did you get more than 5 items ? (or 6 the very first time) because it should have been capped to 5
