hello! i hope you don't mind a bit of feedback on the UI design. overall i thought everything looks great already, good art, good music, writing was well too.
However i do think that the save/skip/etc buttons are too small, having both icon & text inside the small buttons make it difficult to read, i suggest either eliminating the text altogether (since the icons already speak for itself) or make them slightly bigger for better reading
I was wondering if there will be a text box as well for the dialogs? Adding a thick stroke to the text does help with readibility but on the bold texts it does get a bit chunky (and hard to read..). It would help make the slasher portraits appear less jarring too whenever they appear during their dialogs (because it's the exact copy of the sprites twice, which is fine! but yeah, a bit jarring). During the naming part as well i didn't realize i had to start typing my name, i think a little blinking typing thing would make a nice signifier that we could start typing
i think that's all for now. i hope this doesn't seem too out of line, i'm pretty excited at the idea of a slasher dating sim and i'd love to see everything finally come together! Great job on the game so far and i hope the project will run well in the months to come! much love, s.
