Priority fixes

  1. [title_readability] Remove or integrate THE HUMANKIND ODYSSEY tagline into the title treatment; consider a single-line metallic ANCESTORS logo for maximum clarity at tiny sizes
  2. [uniqueness_polish] Add a signature visual element such as a unique color accent, symbolic glyph, or distinctive art filter that creates instant brand recognition separate from the scene composition
  3. [composition] Test Steam's actual small capsule crop boundaries to ensure no primate details or spear elements are cut off at 231×87 display size

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Replace or expand the 'Choose How You Survive' section with concrete examples of strategic choices: e.g., 'Invest in tool-crafting to hunt larger prey, or develop intelligence to outsmart predators—each path unlocks different evolutionary advantages for your descendants.'
  2. [hook_strength] Rewrite the short description opening to lead with the core differentiator: 'Guide your clan through millions of years of human evolution in Neogene Africa, from tree-dwelling hominids to upright walkers—every choice shapes which species your descendants become.' This prioritizes uniqueness over generic survival framing.
  3. [audience_targeting] Add explicit audience signals such as: 'Built for players who love deep simulation, generational progression, and patience-rewarding gameplay over multiple playthroughs' or similar language that clarifies this is not a fast-paced action game.
