I'm not a big fan of Kinetic novels and a quick glance at the art had me a little worried but overall this turned out to be better than expected. I like how the husband was a little antsy at first. As someone who walked a similar path, I got that too. My motivation was a little different but I digress...
Anyway my biggest fear as that the Dev drags out the build up endlessly. I'm not saying there shouldn't be some growth but don't drag it out for a dozen updates. Instead there are more boundaries to explore that can keep the game fresh.
Good luck dev.
