loved it. loved the clean mechanics and smooth gameplay. I would have added some ambient background music. Nothing to loud or mood changing but something that seems like it would be playing. Like on a radio for background music in the train but quietly. maybe jazz or something instrumental like that. I understand if it be too hard to implement this far into the development a new mechanic and how every thing is so perfectly spaced out it might mess it up. but you could have a small radio that the player can switch between a few "stations" that all play the music described or have the option to leave it off so that the original background noise is not lost. One other thing I think could be improved and I don't know if you were already planning to improve them or not was the character models. Just because the whole the feels so alive and warm and the model feels flat and cold to me. I'm not saying you need to make a 3D model but there are some thing to better integrate it into the environment. Firstly color can make a huge difference and by that I mean shadows and highlights, since everything else has nice highlights and lowlights adding that would make the character come to life and make it feel more like it belongs in the environment its in. Next, and this ones just an opinion, adding a little bit of subtle movement can really make it seem as if its really living or not. Because everyone moves, even when standing still, you move your chest, shoulders and lungs to breath. Its subtle yes, but every animated tv show or film adds that to their characters because it adds life to them. Sorry for rambling and sorry for making this sound like a intro to an augmentative essay. I really did love the game. I am also a creator, just not of games, I make art of varying types and I have felt the frustration of working on something and there was a peace missing and how brave you are to share something you made because that can be scary. 4/5 stars as I think you can do better.(p.s. I never really give 5 star much)
