Story-heavy RPGMaker Horror, and it's my first game!

I finished my game, Brother, after years of working on it in bits and pieces as I learned how to use RPG Maker. I know my maps are too big, and I found one or two superficial bugs playing it myself. I've only gotten feedback from one person, a family member, but they loved it enough to complete it right away and were constantly sending questions and feedback, and want to help me develop a wiki for it! So basically, I'm confident in the story, and I know the puzzles and such can be challenging but still solvable without my help. I just haven't had luck getting more people to try it out :( I'd love if a couple more people gave it a shot! 

Quick summary:

- It's a survival horror with puzzle elements

- You play as a little girl trapped in a dangerous world with only her imaginary friend who looks like her recently-deceased older brother to protect you

- I think it's about 4 hours to beat? I feel like I did the bad ending in 2 hours

- There are multiple endings based on player choices and hidden items/scenes

- It was my take on creating a game similar in theme to Witch's House and Ib

I'd love to know:

- If the beginning is interesting enough to hold the player's attention

- What to change if I redo the game (Map sizes are at the top of my list)

- If you beat it, which ending did you get? Would you be willing to replay for the other ending?

- Do you like the music? It's clunky but I made it all myself (except for one song near the end I somehow forgot to replace) and I'm curious if the repetition gets annoying

- Any other questions/comments!!
