Judge feedback
Judge feedback is anonymous.
- Playability is good with no overly complicated systems in place. The themes are in the game, while Shadows is cleverly implemented artistically and Alchemy less cleverly but more obviously implemented gamplay wise. The the gameplay loop is well thought out and promising, however an insentive to play more (visible Score for example) would be nice. The art is very rich in variation, which is both nice, but also creates a strong division between the outside and inside, making it feel incoherent.

The ghost being caked up caught me off guard HAHA.
I loved the characters you encounter and the soothing music. I wasn't sure if I accidentally skipped dialogue, but I couldn't figure out if there is a way to know exactly what a visitor wanted from you. I ended up just using trial and error for each customer.
Other than that, I had a blast playing. Good job!
Thanks for review <3 That is important feedback about customers. Yes, they are silent spirits and we tried to leave small clues about their wishes, probably we should be more obvious! Haha
