Looks and sounds fantastic. To provide some constructive criticism, I think the problem others (and myself) are having might have to do with 2 things:

- The mouse remains active even if you are trying to use keyboard. So, if I press "D" to go right, but my mouse is somewhere else on the screen, if I hit certain boxes the node will still go a different direction.

- The function of the Flow box (the very first one introduced to you in the tutorial) is not clear. I honestly think it's just the wording that's unclear. It says, "Pushes you in the indicated direction". What direction is being indicated? Does the box indicate the direction? Do I indicate the direction? Is it the mouse that is indicating the direction? If I use keyboard, my mouse seems to put a second yellow circle all over the place (as mentioned above). Having the behavior of that Flow box be unclear as to what's happening or how it works is what makes the rest of it difficult to understand. Why is it that when I press "D" only once to enter the box, it moves me to the right 2 spaces/nodes and then backwards back into the box again, entering a repeating loop until I enter another input? The unpredictability is what makes it hard to play.

In fact, I am only just now understanding that the BOX is not a box at all, but is in fact just a callout! I had previously assumed (as I think others did) that the box WAS the "flow". So when you get to the next screen I am looking at the boxes like they are the flows. I think the real problem is just changing the callout! Or making the "flow" be more obvious. I didn't even notice that there was a difference in how the little node looked. I was only looking at the box.
