bonsoir, quand le téléchargement termine il me dit impossible de télécharger car le site n’est pas sûr, j’ai donc confirmé qu’il s’agit d’un site sur, espérant pouvoir le recharger dans les jours à venir :)

A nice short demo!
Here are some of the positives I found in this game :
- Artstyle! This is the biggest "selling point" I think for this game. The art is charming and unique, which immediately sets up a nice cozy vibe.
- Character design. The characters, especially the protagonist, have strong clear designs which helps to get an idea of what they're like.
- Worldbuilding. Through the art and the dialog, a very interesting picture of the world starts to form, and it definitely makes me want to learn more about what's going on.
Now here are some things I've found that would be good to work on if this becomes a full game :
- Dialog. I played this game in english, and there are some things like item descriptions that are left untranslated. The dialog also feels a bit weird at times. It seems that the developer's main language is German, so I don't blame them for this, but it should still be noted.
- Inventory menu. Often the drop-down inventory menu would appear when I was trying to click on something, blocking my mouse.
Finally, I found a small bug where by talking to the lady on the second island over and over again, you could get unlimited balls and fill up your inventory with them, replacing any items you had before. (screenshot attached below)
Overall, I definitely think there is some good potential here, and I'm looking forward to seeing if this ends up becoming a full game!
