Beta request for a Twine Dating Sim - my first ever IF game

Hello!
I recently finished writing my first ever IF game, having come from a background of linear fiction, mostly fanfiction. I am looking for beta testers to assist in my editing process as my regular beta readers have no experience with IF.
The game: A supernatural dating sim where MC/You are stuck in a small town after your bus mysteriously breaks down. There are 5 romanceable guys and MC is presumed a straight woman, mid 20s. (I am a lesbian, but my start in fanfic was with het and I usually still write that.) Content warnings include: violence, magical violence (if that makes sense), player and love interest death, accidental drugging, and referenced child abuse (non-sexual).
It’s really not as bad as those make it sound, except maybe the dramatic final act.
The game is written in Twine and should be screen reader friendly, though there are a few text effects that I can’t guarantee are. I’d love feedback if they break anything for non-visual people.
I’m still new to the site, so please have patience if I’m slow to get back to you as I muddle my way through this. Note that this game is not for a competition and just my first foray into the field.

Thanks!

Hey!

We’re in the final days before our October IF Competition, so you may find it a little difficult to find Beta testers at this exact moment as everyone’s scrambling to get their games in on time. This community is normally really responsive to requests for testing, so if you don’t get any replies right now, try again in a couple of weeks. I just didn’t want you to hear crickets without knowing why!

Oh, thank you for warning me! I did already get one volunteer though, I feel extra lucky to have gotten a response at all now!
I couldn’t figure out when the competition actually was or I might have waited, lol.
