Thanks for playing!
The text is the first thing I will fix up in the next update, especially the scrolling text at the beginning.
In general, the whole thing does need a tidy-up, since I ran short of time submitting the game to the jam before I was away from my PC for a week or so, it was quite nerve-wracking!
I am glad you like the story, it will be more developed and fleshed out in the next episodic update.
