I kept playing mostly out of sheer amazement. The voicelines, the faces, the... Dreamlike hellscape we're somehow trapped on, rewinding tapes only to rent them out at 40 pounds a piece for 20 seconds. That's 2 pounds a second, 120 pounds per minute. Those tapes better have some real enlightenment on them. However, as much as I want to really like this game, I feel like it's gonna give me carpal tunnel. There's not a moment where you're not spam clicking rewinders with a hammer, or flicking your mouse quickly between tapes and customers for the x2 bonus. You don't earn a lot of cash, and it's all manual, so it feels very, very slow and stressful. Having multiple rewinders feels useless due to how stupidly slow they rewind by themselves, and how on-demand every single one of your tapes is. And still, somehow, I felt like customers were slow and not asking for enough tapes? You need to keep every single tape stocked to it's max - Because a customer can ask for as many tapes of a single type as you have. But that does leave you with 3/4 of your stock untouched. It sits in a weird limbo where I simultaneously feel like I should be doing more, want to be doing less, and am already at my maximum. I really, really think this'd benefit from hotkeys. I found out right clicking throws a tape straight to storage, and the hammer back to its place, so you can spam-right-click-right in a rewinder to deal with it in quick succession. But I'd really want to have hotkeys to take tapes from storage (to not be playing an aim trainer each time I'm going for the fast service bonus) or taking the hammer off the wall. Unlocking audio tapes also just... Lowered my income while giving me more work and upgrade costs. I kinda just stopped playing at that point, because I didn't have it in me to start upgrading a whole new different type of tape that's half as profitable as my current one, when I'm already feeling so stretched. If any of my problems get fixed after that point, I don't know it.

Also please give me volume sliders. I like the dialogue but I don't want it to be so loud. It gets real loud when it overlaps.
