Nice submission, I really like the art and the overall feel and direction of the game! Would be interested to see what happens next :)
Thanks so much, Albond! Glad to hear you liked the game! We'll definetlly be looking to make some more content to release!
We want to take it slower now, so we can ensure that it is well polished and fun to play for everyone!
Thanks for the feedback!
I enjoyed your game. You guys have a definite art style. I’d like to see the rest of your content if you have a whole plot worked out for the other days; I feel like the whole situation with the dragon probably isn’t a stable working arrangement.
One thing I found confusing is that the mouse cursor was not immediately visible in Investigation Mode; it appeared black-on-black in my browser (Firefox, on Linux). I do not know if that was intended, but I found it confusing. It was the only confusing part of your game.
Hi Joe! Thanks for playing our game! Thanks for the compliments on the art style, our artist worked very hard to get all these assets done in the two weeks we were given, and we're really chuffed with what we have!
I'm happy to inform you, we do infact have a larger plot in the works over multiple days, and hopefully we'll be able to deliver it for you!
I appreciate the feedback on the cursor, the black-on-black design was not intended, in previous builds a grey background was used to prevent the issue, but after a swap to the black background the cursor seems to have become slightly troublesome. But, rest assured, this will be resolved in future builds!
Thank you for your support and I hope you continue to follow our work!
The art for this game is great! good job! keep making games!
Thanks so much! We have a very talented artist working with us, and hopefully we can bring you some more amazing art!
That was me!! Really glad you liked it despite the rough and rush. Thank you so much for the lovely words :)
