Priority fixes

  1. [contrast_color] Increase the saturation or brightness of the house window glow to make the left-side environmental context more visually distinct from the background at tiny sizes.
  2. [composition] Consider slight repositioning of the computer monitor to create more breathing room between it and the right edge to improve resilience to Steam's capsule cropping.
  3. [uniqueness_polish] Refine the pixel-art computer sprite or add a more iconic visual motif (signature color accent, character mark, or UI element) that becomes immediately recognizable at thumbnail scale across marketing materials.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Add one concrete example of a trap or puzzle that spans both the cabin and game worlds (e.g., "solve a riddle on the computer screen to unlock a physical lock in the cabin") to clarify the meta-mechanic.
  2. [feature_communication] Expand the feature list to include at least one detail about puzzle types, player actions, or interaction methods (e.g., "examine objects, make choices, and solve logic puzzles to survive").
  3. [audience_targeting] Add a brief mention of expected playtime or note whether the game emphasizes speedrun-style challenge or exploratory puzzle-solving to help players self-identify fit.
