Not convincing enough
He felt pain, anger, bitterness… Waves of emotion crashed down on him like a raging hurricane as he stood there, frozen in shock.

Somehow... She is a mother seeing her son in danger Its motherly instinct
Somehow, she had escaped her own shock as she dragged him across the living room to a section of the house he wasn't quite sure existed.

Dialogues should have a start and an end not a paragraph inbetween Instead do something like this: ... "Good day to you all, my little mortals, today is your time for ascension out of your little cresspools..." a being said via the recording. "I have a treat for you today, one you all would love" The being continued ... Something like this is enough to make a long speech feel shorter
"Well, well, well, look at you all! My beloved little mortals! Gather 'round, because I've got a real treat for you today—yes, you heard me right! See, I've been watching you scamper about, clutching onto your little routines, thinking everything is just fine and ordinary. But that's about to change in a way you'll never forget, believe me!

It's an icon not a menu
Written across it was a menu that spelled "Audio of Impending Doom". Another smaller menu to the bottom right was written "Click Me".

Overall Chapter review: Your first chapter should introduce us, the readers to your character but we just know the name, Max. Who is he? What is his full name? How tall or fat is he? What is his full name? .. These should be in your first chapter and maybe even spill over
She is an older woman at least in her thirties A full name is required Remember, you aren't just creating characters, you are creating a person A person that exists in a world you created in your book Same with Max
Max's mom, Sally, stared at him from across the bed with those deep blue eyes. He was basically a photocopy of her looks and charm, sporting blonde hair like hers that settled on his scalp in curls.

Oh.. Should have read this part as well
Of course, he only cuddled with his cat. Who didn't?

Ayo... Is he f-ing the cat
She coiled her body around his arms and he hoisted her nimble form up on his bed. Maybe one day, it would be a woman he would be laying with, but for now, his cat would do perfectly.

Not a good introduction for a novel. It should introduce Max to us as a person not a concept ... Recommended style is to describe him in a building or doing something relevant Not waking up unless it is relevant to the set up
You know that moment when you're in a dream, but you're so self-inserted you fail to register it ain't reality?

Nope Describe the voice as cold and flat... Almost as though a machine was speaking
Max seemed to be hearing a voice in his head. It sounded like some female AI with a hint of sass.
