In the main game, I really liked the aesthetics. Simple but effective game play. I liked how you left little snippets on your current situation/what's going on throughout the levels. Made the story more interesting and the ending left me wanting to know more! :D
I enjoyed your writing style! Thanks for making and sharing this game.
I got stucked on the second level, that camera always get's me x_x
I want to try it out more to see how it ends :D
Fun and neat gameplay.
However, the intro dialog is tooooooo long
I hoped that the game finished with "to be continued..." to be sure that you're planning to keep working on it, because the story is so intriguing.
The soundtrack choice also is perfect.
The only downsides are:
* it is too short, but you focused on the story and in my opinion it worked, since I want more!
* I know that I can press spacebar to skip the captions, but a full "skip scene" would it be great. For this prototype I think it is not necessary, because the most of the game is in the story so there's no need to skip it, given that unfortunately at current stage there is almost no replayability
Great work and please continue!
