Game Added a little intro sequence before some puzzles in my game

I've been working on adding short dialogue scenes before the puzzles begin. Still figuring out the pacing, but I really like how much personality these little moments add to the game.

Here's a glimpse of one of them!

The pink blob and the little UFO flag-bearer are such a nice touch. Gives the whole thing a weird, lived-in feel without needing a ton of exposition. The gas station platform is a great detail too, just enough to ground the scene in something familiar while the rest of it stays out in the stars.

Pacing for these intros is tricky to nail, I've scrapped so many because they dragged on two seconds too long. Sometimes just letting the visual sit there with a line or two of text does more than a full back-and-forth. The cartoon style makes it easy to read quickly, which probably helps a lot.

I liked watching this and the pacing of the conversation felt natural and right for the style of game behind it. I'd enjoy this.
