I'm sorry you found that frustrating. I appreciate you trying it even with the movement issues. I've also gotten feedback that the goal should be more clear, and I think that includes the interactions.
Not expecting you to play it again. But for anyone else so they know. When you get choices to influence someone's emotions, it usually changes where they will be, or how they act in the next time section. So really the goal is finding how you influence everyone, and (slight spoilers) figuring out how to get certain people to the bluffs in the night time section. I fully get how that should have been clearer
Thank you for your feedback and for trying it out :)
