Creative take on the prompt, Gen! I think the way you've structured the game is very cool, the illustrations are neat, the sounds are calming, and the dialogue is intriguing! Something I think would be interesting is different lines of dialogue for each playthrough, so that way if I want to restart, I have to talk to everyone again instead of rushing to the portal to pick the correct answers on that playthrough. This is a very strange and minor thing, but when the witch is talking, she's talking on a plain background, I would like to see something there, like a drawing, a picture, or even the trippy backgrounds that the Mother games use when fighting enemies. Other than that, solid work!
