Congrats on submitting your game!
I loved the artwork. The characters were emotive and full of.... character! The core loop of the game felt pretty cool, too. However, I think the timed element of it was completely unnecessary and made the game overly confusing and difficult. It often took me almost a minute of just looking at the screen to even figure out what I needed to do, so the constant respawning made me way more anxious than needed. Did you try the game without the timed/forced deaths? Does it still work?
I like your story, but I think there was just a bit too much of it. The characters were visually appealing, but I had little interest in what they had to say. I think they might have all had too much to say and it wasn't obvious who was speaking in later conversations, especially with the winemaker.
Still, y'all did great on this. Keep making games!
