Great game! I love the pixel art and the overall vibes of the game - the nice forest settings together with the music and the story make up a really cool experience. You really nailed the oldschool feeling - sometimes a little bit too much haha. The overall UX of the game is missing some visual feedback on the interaction specially the puzzles feel a little bit "stiff". For example the puzzle with the scale was confusing me since I expected the stones and hearts to be pick- and dropable.
I really fall in love with the art and the main menu / intro soundtrack - if you polish up the UX and the puzzles this could be a great foundation for a nice retro puzzle title. I had some great time playing it after all.
