Oh my god, I died at the 3d rendering at the end. That's beautiful. Such a beautiful boy.
I really liked the meta "did the game start?" thing at the beginning. I wish it had been a bigger part of the game. Controls felt good enough, though I thought I should be able to aim the spear.
The real killer here is the dialogue. I appreciated it, but it stopping the game every time and appearing so frequently really killed any momentum and flow to the game. Could those just be overlayed and keep the game moving instead of freezing everything?
Great job on this team. The music and sprites are gorgeous.
