An absolute masterpiece in my eyes. The entire experience is handily in professional realms, from the UI to the artwork to the soundtrack. I was afraid the change in styles between the CGs and the actual sprites would throw me off but both styles and renditions of Warren have so much charm and personality! I found myself so enraptured with his actual sprites and how expressive he is! oh goodness my heart
My only critique is that I can see where this would be more interactive, had you not had to make the whole thing in a month. The bit with the Gizmos is absolutely a jumping-off point for the player to engage with the world in a really fun way, Warren's tower itself would be a whole slew of fascinating exploration opportunities, and the solution to the climax would be such a satisfying contribution the player could make! As it stands, however, the kinetic novel approach is appropriate and still a good experience!
I am very hopeful this team stays together because y'all obviously work GREAT together, I'll be eagerly watching what you can put out in the future!
