I completed the demo provided and it was fun!
i thought the fighting would get pretty stagnant and repetitive over time but no. i still find casting spells and using the individual skills of the party to be pretty fun even after ending the chimera, though you get overpowered really quick and i think it would be more fun if grinding was a big factor in the game idk if you had planned it already since this is an alpha after all..
story wise - i can't really talk about the characters since rest assured again this is an alpha and you may have planned everything i have in mind already. but they're good not too bland nor too obnoxious. for a fantasy setting they fit in perfectly in my opinion.
overall i highly believe this game has great potential. and i think you know that better than i do. as an aspiring gamedev this is pretty impressive for me as an alpha
take my feedback regarding the gameplay with a grain of salt. and goodluck with the journey of releasing the full game!
here are some minor visual ermm bugs? they're pretty minor. i can atleast help to point out.
(custom name shadow is different?)
(at death the aura remains)
(opening the book before the victory menu)
