Thanks for your initial thoughts! 🧚
-It isn't that complicated to make the highlight on hover, however such addition would make the selection being changed each time you hover a new possible thing you can click on, so I fear it would be more distracting than helpful.
-You are proposing to add this functionality as an option to the option menu so only those who want it have it?
-Thank you a lot for your suggestions to improve on the dialogues!
-Noted, I will see what I can do
-When you say 'the characters', you mean the player character or all character in general?
-I tried finding a better text colour since last time but I didn't find anything better in the palette , I should probably try to look for another background picture

- There's two things here: an indication on hover, and having to click twice to select an option.
- Regarding hover, I'm not suggesting an option. It's not too big a deal. But I would prefer some response on hover.
- Having to click twice is a pain though. You can decide whether to change this based on feedback from other folks as well.
- Idle animation for the player character, mainly. Again I haven't played many RPGs so I don't know the standard. Once I came back to the game screen after a while from another window, and I had to look hard to figure out where I am on screen. I don't know if idle animation is the way to solve this, but something to think about in general.
-I just give a more reactive interface to an unlucky guinea pig, who hated it. Turns out it messed up with the regular keyboard/controller controls. I will have to be extra careful with this one.
-Idle animations are not unheard of in 2d RPG, but they're more like extra touches than actually useful for gameplay. Usually the player is simply at the centre of the screen, and if not, one can just move to see where the player character is. I will still keep the idea as it would indeed be a nice touch to add at some point.
