The prose is strong; it's amazing how much of a story you fit into under 1000 words! The ending is particularly sweet and moving.

I have one quibble, which is small and totally subjective: the speed at which new text appears is a bit slow, and I spent some time just staring at the screen waiting for the story to continue.

Hey, thanks a bunch! I was getting a bit discouraged lookin' at all the other fancy entries, so I appreciate the kind words.

The text crawl was an experiment; some folks said it was too fast, some said it was too slow. I think I played one game that had it like perfect, but it's a hard line to toe.

The competition is pretty amazing!

Yeah, I think it's inherently difficult because people's reading speeds can differ so much. I tend to just present the text all at once, but I know some people find that visually overwhelming or harder to read.

I too felt it was a bit slow but I also liked the feeling it gave to the text. It's a nice technical touch regardless.
