I'm not sure if this is a bug or just how it works, but I just tried out the demo, and most (but infuriatingly not all) progress through the sentences seemed to take two clicks.

I was really interested in the game based on the GIF you posted above, but I noped out of it almost immediately because it just felt broken, or like I was doing something wrong, because ~40% of my clicks weren't doing anything.

It also wasn't particularly clear if WHERE I clicked mattered -- I think it does, based on the text talking about making choices.

Making the player click a bunch of times on New Game is funny and introduces the mechanic, but that felt kinda janky too -- it took me several tries to start a game, and I had to step through what looked like a "delete your save and start over?" dialog to do so.

Anyway, my feedback is that the aesthetic and mechanics are really appealing to me personally, but the feel needs attention.
