Wow... Thank you so much for the really well thought out response and constructive criticism!
1. I think you are absolutely correct about this. Grammar (especially in the intro) is essential to set up the scene properly for the player
2. The space to continue idea is a really nice idea, and was a complete oversight from us. Admittedly, alot of these features we decided to ignore because it was easier to code.. (classic game jam stuff ;/) I completely agree that mouse adds absolutely nothing to the game
3. The idea of internal monologue is a really interesting point and I'm glad that you brought it up. Now looking back at the game, the implementation of some way to differentiate between the character's thoughts and what was said would really help to enhance the experience. The grammar was definitely not up to par and 100% will be improved on after the jam ends.
Thanks so much for taking the time to write such an insightful response!! I will make sure to look back at this to clean up this game(and others of a similar style) in the future.
:P
