Hi, as promised, I played your game and here are my thoughts:
Pros
- I like the idea with the achievement system.
- Controls was easy to use
- I didn’t encounter any major bugs.
- I like the idea with the puzzles. I would recommend you to add some more.
- Sound effects/ambience and atmosphere were great.
- Your effort in creating the game with writing / story.
Cons
- Some lighting behaviors. Example: Shine effect on the grass from the bonfire (minor issue, not game breaking).
- A bit too dark
- Too much reading stuff (Personal opinion).
- I had some trouble, when trying to interact with objects(books).
- You could make it possible to pick up books/notes.
- Mouse behavior was a bit strange. It was like it used acceleration even though I didn’t.
- I couldn’t avoid the dog, even if I turned off my light. Maybe I did it wrong.
- If you can die, you will have to implement a save/load game function, otherwise the game becomes frustrating. I will suggest you disable the “death” functionality, until you find another solution.
Overall, a decent game. I had a good time playing it.
Keep up the good work!
