The moment I realized I needed to look for little things on the screen I started to get that exploration feel - where it feels really good to make forward movement. Adding in mechanics as you go is great. 

You've definitely gotta give a bit more of a clue of what you can click on, though - otherwise the player just has the wave the mouse around on every screen to figure out what's actionable. There were a couple of things in particular where it just looked like background stuff and led to mouse-waving mode. 

If there's more coming, review to be continued...

I uploaded a .zip version of the Windows build instead, please let me know if that works! Thanks so much for pointing this out, I really appreciate it!!

I am unable to play the Windows version of the game. When I try to play I get a message saying "Data Folder Not Found" and "There should be 'naina_Data' folder next to the executable"

EDIT: The above issue has been fixed. The game is very interesting and ominous. Each new note piece had me wanting to find more to uncover what was going on in that letter and the world. The highlights for passageways and items felt great with the background. Well Done.

It works now. I'll edit my original comment to include my thoughts.
