I had no clue what was going on the first time so I decided to refresh the page to start over, but now it errors out and refuses to start again, even after multiple refreshes " Error: Couldn't load project data at path ".". Is the .pck file missing? If you've renamed the executable, the associated .pck file should also be renamed to match the executable's name (without the extension)."
The idea was interesting but could've used a lot more clarifying elements.

Hello 6Knowledge! Thanks for letting me know about this issue! I clicked to play now and this error shows up to me too! Very weird, seems to be fine yesterday I played again. I also refreshed 5-7 times before it allowed me to play... weird.
Thanks for persevering! I always struggle with this balance of providing just enough information and hints before revealing everything to the player with these games. You are right, there were a couple of mental jumps needed for this, hopefully the visual feedback on what could be interacted was at least clear. Would love to hear any advice on what you may have added to achieve this from you as a fellow dev! One of the great advantages of jams like this is to have cool people play your games hehe.
(I did think of a "press for Tips" button. Maybe I could have written there some gibberish to give extra hints ?)
