i love the aesthetic, lyre and the story however having so many passages between dialogues makes the experience feel very disjointed for me every now and then. a few times i had to look at the history to understand why mc or lyre responded the way they did. perhaps it's due to my own lack, as english is like my 2nd or 3rd language, but the writing at times feels very wordy that i can't help but laugh a little when the mc says "riddles can do just as good a job until theyre too demanding," cus that's what i felt reading through at times.
perhaps this is just the overarching style of the writing intended, in that case, dont listen to me. still, if this is something the dev would like to consider, i think it could help make the overall game experience more enjoyable.
i for one adore the art style, backgrounds no notes on that. nonetheless, id love to see more and know more about the mc and the world shes in
