a good premise , good writing too , I'm curious to see more
but there is some things that you can improve :
a way to have more control over the zoom would be cool
the text is either too small or to big , if you zoom in it's too much and if you zoom out it's not enough
and a way to control the background and text colors , white text on a totally black screen it's hurt my eyes a little
unfortunately , flash player is not the best engine to make this type of game and does not offer you a lot of control on your work ..
quest engine is a better option , classic , but good enough , you can add sound and picture if you want , thr player can control the size and colors of the text ( only the size in the online version ) , and it's really easy to use
and you can make a online version , so you can update it when you want , and more importantly , correct the game without having people download it each time you make a little update
or you can work in twine , a little more harder , but you can make a lots of good things too
just some advice , it's your game , you do what you want
