So I made a visual novel in Renpy. It is the first time I created a game, any feedback is more than welcome.

Overview:
You are playing as chronically ill person with slight shortsightedness, who has experienced mental health difficulties in the past. You are trying to find a way to connect with the outside world, while staying safe at the same time.
The game's protagonist, @CautiousCauliflower, is loosely based on the author of the game (me:)).
Content warning: The protagonist exhibits some patterns of thinking that might be a little bit too familiar to people with anxiety disorders or trauma.
