Why does this game have so many unnecessary mouse clicks to advance dialogue and images? The transitions from one image or scene to another require an additional mouse click. So you have a black screen, or the dialogue box disappears for one mouse click while keeping the same image, and requires another mouse click to advance the transition to the next image, scene, or worse yet, next line of dialogue. It's so unnecessary. The dev really needs to familiarize themselves with coding transitions and a few other basic coding statements. There's far too many unnecessary mouse clicks required that could easily be solved with using the correct statements (like the with statement, among others).
Edit: the issue gets slightly better once the MC goes to the convenience store to get wine for the first family diner, but still remains, it's just less frequent.
2nd Edit: the transitions do get better as the game progresses. There's a noticeable improvement after the first volleyball scene. The first few scenes are still rough, but it does get better.
