I have no idea what the two comments below me are going on about. Chapter 1 was fantastic! I think the character designs were super pleasing to the eye, as well as the highly-theatrical GUI. The art within the game needs to properly be appreciated for its painterly style and fun character sprites. My favorite is still when (spoiler) turns around to realize that (spoiler) has been locked inside the theater. The wide, shocked eyes are very well done.
The mechanics of this game are also very nice! I panicked when a time limit was revealed lol And I was very invested in the mystery, even if the chapter itself wasn't super long. William's character design is a favorite because of how whimsical he appears, as well as Manea because of the big sleeves, cotton candy colors, and giant ribbons that fly about when she does that happy sprite.
I can't wait to play Chapter 2! You guys did a wonderful job on this game!
