This is a pretty fun idea for a game, I could definitely see how it could expand and become more complex, but I enjoyed what was on display here. I really enjoyed the visuals and music, and I thought it was a pretty clever interpretation of the theme, being a checkpoint on someone else's journey rather than going on a journey yourself.
I do think I triggered a bug by clicking through the dialogue too fast, skipping the dwarf, but it was early on so I just restarted. Overall, great work!
