And thank you, sir, for that tremendously valuable feedback. I think it can (should) certainly be much longer - I imagine something that would take closer to twenty minutes to play through would be better.
I think the shortness is a fault of mine and not the medium, though at some point the decisions need to be made sure they're meaningful and not just to stretch things on, but there can certainly be much more than just one or two decisions establishing a player's morality (or lack thereof!).
That being said, though, some of the abruptness, some of the choices will always be restricting and sudden - and so the question in the end is whether being able to pick your own path is worth more than being led through the author's one 'true' path.

Again, thank you for playing, and for commenting!
