The mythology and story you chose for this was really interesting and different from the norm! It was cool to learn about a culture I was unfamiliar with. The Papinijuwari was a great character in the game. The voice was a lot of fun. The sprites were cute. Everything seemed solid. No bugs. I felt like it needed a bit more action in addition to hiding, but overall was fun!
