Hi, I think this is a really cool game. I did rate the game during the rating period, and I apologize for not leaving any constructive feedback.
For my first playthrough, I couldn't reopen the control guide in the game using the `Q` button, as it was guided from the start menu. The most critical thing for me was that the torchlight from the main character didn't read clearly and the respawn did not provide enough feedback for me to understand what was happening. I did not know why I was being sent to the festival area. I thought the game bugged and restarted, losing any progress I had, as the festival owner's dialogue was the same when I first met him. I hastily rated the game, thinking it wasn't in a playable state, and I was wrong. Just replayed the game today, and understanding the torch mechanic, I was able to have fun and complete it.
Not so critical but worth mentioning is that you can have very basic SFX and VFX for the minigames at the festival to add juice to them. Also, the dialogues for the characters are really great, but wish it were made more clear at a glance who was talking. Maybe highlighting, resizing the character portrait for the talker, or showing only one portrait at a time.
Again, sorry for the hasty judgment and late feedback comment. It is a really cool game, and I see the love you've put into it. And thank you for sharing this game!
