I want to start by saying how cool this is for an RPG Maker game, loading into the first level and seeing the 3D environment was awesome! The gameplay is so fresh for the program and a breath of fresh air! The art is also amazing, seriously great job on the character art as it is extremely well done (If you have social I'd love to follow)!
The gameplay does have some issues, particularly with the angle of perspective. It makes navigation difficult, particular cases are the vertical environments and levels with a LOT of similar tiles on the floor and gaps the navigate over. Level 2 is the biggest example of this as both section one and two are extremely hard to navigate.
The ranking and score system could be improved in my opinion as too many mistakes completely nullifies a run. I'd personally try a "star" like system. Completing the level with no deaths and under certain time requirements earn you bonus dream orbs while while orb collecting can remain the same as the main goal rather then a multiplier. But that said, adding a quick level reset button could help lighten frustrations with the current system if that is preferred!
Overall an amazing game still, I hope I don't come off as too negative or critical as genuinely I see so much potential here and would love to see more! I highly encourage developing this project more, and if possible explore making it in another engine as I'd love to see even more expression for you outside of RPG Maker!

Like a lot of others before me, I'm not one for visual novels, but the characters are exceptionally cute and fun leading to a lot of great moments in the game! The biggest complement I can give is the drink making game being included, although simple, VNs that include games like that in between all the text can really help break up some of the reading in a fun way! I highly encourage looking for more ways to include such games and look forward to what you add next!
All the characters and art are fantastic and like all of Nypod4's work I love to see it! While the game is unfinished, it shows the framework of being a really fun day to day game and in general another great game! Keep up the amazing work you two, I can't wait to see what you add to it moving forward and what you make next!
