wow the animations are looking really good! you even have bobbing and blinking. and im glad to see more puzzles. they were a big part of what made the original game fun.
a small suggestion: try swapping the dialogue font for something slightly fancier, like a serif font, and see how that looks. i think it would fit the aesthetics of the castle setting more than the arial-ish font currently used.
looking forward to july! though you could totally hold off on release til october. more development time, less rush, and (from what i've seen) scary games do well on itchio, especially during the halloween season. just an idea ;)
