Graphics and sounds are on point, wow! This is astonishing and intricately made. Congratulations :)

The screenshots look very nice. Unfortunately, I'm getting this error message every time I try to open the game((

This game was an absolutely incredible stealth game.  I'm always interested in trying out some new form of stealth and this one definitely added a mix to the genre for me at least.  Generally I've played much slower p[aced stealth games, this one does not fit that at all.

Gives it a little spice to mix it up, especially with the timer making it clear that you should be moving fast.  Though HI do have to say I"m not entirely sure how it fits the theme, since the magic is actually real.  I guess it could be down to the magician almost using it as his catch phrase while doing real magic?  Or it could be saying that the whole thing is not real throughout ?  I'm not quite sure.

Overall though the gameplay itself is great, I'd only really point out some weirdness in movement controls, mainly with the decision for moving and aiming abilities ton the same key/control leading to some weirdness.  Almost like a twin stick shooter but without the second stick, though I personally did eventually get somewhat around it by aiming my movement target very far ahead and going from there.

Though a setting for WASD etc. movement would be nice.  Would remove some of the pathfinding weirdness messing with controls that happens at certain points, specifically I ran into an issue where the character would pathfind around the table tin the first room rather than grabbing the key quite a lot.  Not a massive problem, but definitely a little annoying when keeping in mind the cooldown on the slippers themselves.

The art and audio has no right being as good as it is! Plus great theme, this is bring rated pretty highly :)

(It would be really nice though if the timer didn't start until you leave the first room, that way the player isn't penalized for taking a moment to figure out the controls)

The voice acting and style is super fun! I really like the mechanics, the game turned out really well! good job!
